I wish I could rate
"I wish I could rate these blades higher, but I am afraid they are the only ones that nicked me each time I used them. That said, I do have a somewhat strange beard growth, so you might have a different experience."

Overall rating: 4.686747 / 5 from 83 reviews.
The Astra Platinum Double Edge Razor Blades offer a smooth and great shave, appreciated for their high quality. They are platinum coated to ensure edge retention and rust elimination, fitting all modern double-edge safety razors. However, some customers find them less sharp compared to Feather or Kai blades.

"These were the first blades I tried in my vintage Gillette Tech. I think they are a bit too mild for that already mild razor (the tragedy of sensitive skin), but they were obviously quality and cut things well enough, it just took too many passes to get it done. I will see how they work in a more aggressive razor down the road."
