Astra Superior Platinum Double Edge Blades (100)

Great experience with NOAH. My order arrived quickly and the blades were exactly what I was hoping for — Russian‑made Astra SP. Support was really helpful in explaining the Turkish compliance label on the box and answered my question straight away. Really happy with the service.

These blades truly deserve the reputation they have. Sharp, not the sharpest, but still super smooth and with the pro of being really affordable. Works really well in my Gillette, Muhle and Henson razors.

These blades are well and truly sharp enough to give a good, close shave. They last for quite a while and are some of the cheapest blades available. Astra platinums are pretty much unbeatable for the someone who wants to save money but still wants a good shave

I have tried the sample kits containing various brands and amongst the best are the Astra Superior Platinums. I inherited my grandfathers 1960's Gillette shaver and combined with the Astra blades they give a sensationally smooth shave. Especially good when you are shaving off a few days growth of stubble for that extra clean and smooth finish, then an application of your favourite after shave leaving you feeling luxurious and fresh for the day. Plus a discounted price of $15 for 100 blades make them a bargain.

Personally my favourite blades. Tried other brand that are advertised as the sharpest but found them too harsh and left my skin red.

I don't even bother looking around. I know this shop is the best. I don't care if there are cheaper options, because I know what I'm getting is elite.

Tried these 10 years ago, but wasn’t convinced.
Made the mistake of “settling” on another obscure brand of blade that has since proven difficult to procure, so given these are readily available from anywhere (even my local barber stocks them) thought I’d give them another go.
Must say I’m pleasantly surprised; sharp enough for my beard in my grandfather’s old Gillette Superspeed (but not too sharp) and smooth enough that I barely feel it with less irritation than any other blade I’ve tried (heaven for my poor, long suffering and very sensitive neck).
Not sure about its durability - I can get 2, maybe 3 shaves from each blade - but at the sale price I could toss them after 1 and it not be an issue. Well worth a try if you haven’t already. Men's Biz price and swift delivery are spot on as usual.

Quality Astra blades at a great price (50% off, $15 for 100 blades), and with a wide range of double-edge blades and products to choose from.

My favourite blades to use with DE razors. I have hairs on the thicker side and these are sharp enough for effortless passes even on the third shave, and aren't so sharp as to cut easily when new. Perfect for those just starting out.

I went through quite a few blades before landing on these. They have become my go to blades providing a balance between comfort and closeness

I'm new to using DE razors but these blades really work for me - and great value for money too.

Astra Superior blade along with my Merkur Slant 37C is the perfect combination for my daily shave and great durability with a blade lasting me 5 days no problem.

I first bought these blades following Stirling Cooper's article about grooming in Dapper Confidential. These blades are great coupled with the Merkur 34C Heavy Duty Safety Razor. So many good things about this combination - because of the weight (and beautiful balance) of the razor all the hard work is removed from shaving. The blades are brilliant for an up-close shave and not at all expensive.

And last, but by no means least you are helping the planet by not using throwaway plastic razors. Win. Win. Men's Biz impressed with excellent fast service. Excellent razors and customer service.

I regret not going to a Merkur safety razor with these blades sooner. I have to shave every day for work and even then the blades last me at least 3 years with my coarse hair. As usual delivery and service from Mens Biz was excellent!

I use these with a shavette. This pack will last me for about four years, so I’m now spending less than four dollars a year on shaving.

And I couldn’t believe how speedy the delivery was. I live in a regional city, yet the order arrived less than 24 hours after I submitted it.

I can’t fault the product or the service!

After using a range of DE bladess from the Men's Biz Deluxe sampler pack, I have settled on these as my favourite. Excellent value.

Over the year since moving to DE Shaving, I have tried a number of blades. All that I can suggest for the newbie is to start with a SAMPLE PACK. Don't waste your money buying in bulk unless you're happy with the blade. For me, the balance between a sharp by super-smooth blade is paramount. Feathers are too aggressive, Personna Lab Blues overrated, with Derbys a waste of space and raw materials (blunt as blunt can get - ridiculous!).

My beard characteristics: light to moderate growth, with sensitive skin. I do 3 passes and get an insane BBS shave every time!

I try to shave no more than once-twice a week (just too busy). I can NEVER go back to the plastic crap.

My preferred blade is Wilkinson Sword (Gillette, Germany). Second is the Astra Superior Platinum (Gillette, Russia), with a close 3rd the Shark Super Stainless and Super Chrome (both underrated blades IMHO).

The Astras are a good, honest blade and for the bulk price of 15cents per blade, value for money.

Definitely worth a trial!

Happy shaving!

These razor blades stay sharp for over a week for me. Great value. Will never go back to Gillette's outrageous offering.

Being new to the DE razor world I didn't know which brand would work for me. Some were too sharp and left me with nicks, most too blunt causing discomfort in my thicker areas, but the Astra SP seemed just the right balance and left me with no irritation. And the price for the x100 pack, can't go wrong.

May not be as sharp as a feather blade, but these do the job. I get a smooth shave with no irritation. My skin is left feeling great after two passes and I can honestly get a BBS with these blades. The price is ridiculous too.

Don't shop around, just get these. Not too sharp, but sharp enough. Easy to handle. Just perfect.

these blades are pretty good and are great value but using them in a Muhle 41, Muhle blades are a lot smoother and last a fair bit longer. I am more likely to give Merkurs a go next time as the smoother blades seem to go better with an aggressive razor (like the Muhle 41)

Very happy with these after switching from Wilkinson Sword blades on my Muhle R89 razor.

These blades work very well for me, they cut very well without irritation. Fantastic value. Tremendous service from Men's Biz as always too.

These didn’t work for me personally, found them too blunt just didn’t work for my skin. I would spend a little more and get Merker’s or feathers.

I've been experimenting with multiple DE razors, The blade is only good for mild or efficient double edge razor. because the blade is not sharp enough it is more likely to tugs while pairing it with an aggressive razor usually against the grain.
This causes acne ,nicks and irritation for me so i went to feathers and most of my problems are gone and quality of the shave is drastically improved and it saved me some time so really your getting what you paid for.

My hairdresser gave me a sample of these and i loved them. I wanted to keep the beard neat so found this site and the blades for an awesome price. The glide easily and get the closest shave I have ever had with zero irritation. Now can shave 2-3 times a week using this box and not have to worry about running out anytime soon.
Extremly fast delivery. Purchased Sunday, Arrived Tuesday.

Highly recommended over stainless steel or feather

Tremendously good price for 100 blades. I've been DE shaving for about 4 years now and tried lots of difference blades in my Merkur HD. The hair on my neck grows in swirly patterns and it's very hard to get a good close shave without excessive irritation. These blades seem less sharp than the Feathers and Red Personnas (my previous favourites) but glide smooothly and let me shave last pass against the grain with minimal irritation. Best blades I've tried!

Best quality for razor blades , if the 100 Pk of blades are on special then jump on it and but them . I use to use disposable razors till I looked around and found this wonderful website with decent priced shavers and replaceable . I've used these blades for a couple of years now and I haven't looked back .

I'm amazed by these blades. I get seven shaves on one side then I turn them over and get another seven days. You'll notice the numerical markings on them. Also I've learnt not to press too hard because the results are not pretty.
