Thank you for viewing! 【Astra Superior Platinum Double-Edged Razor Blades, 10 Blades】 A classic blade, "considered a global benchmark," that offers both a sharp cut and a moderately mild touch. It starts with a slightly sharp feel on the first use, reaches its benchmark on the second, and is most stable on the third. Often described as "sharp but not scary," it's well-balanced for everyday use. ■ Contents ・Astra Superior Platinum ・Set of 10 blades (5 blades x 2 boxes) ・Unused / Unopened ■ Features (Star Rating) Sharpness: ★★★★☆ Skin Feel: ★★★☆☆ Durability: ★★★☆☆ Cost Performance: ★★★★★ Beginner-Friendly: ★★★★☆ ※ Practical limit: Around 4 shaves ※ Durability evaluation is based on the "practical limit," not just "how long sharpness is maintained," but whether there is still a point in continuing to use the blade. ■ Key Points ・Easy to handle from the first use, not overly aggressive ・Reaches its benchmark on the second shave, highly reproducible on the third ・Versatile, stable with any razor holder ・Suitable for everything from close shaves to everyday use ▼ Product Notes This blade isn't a peak type or a long-distance type; the 1st to 3rd shaves are considered the completed state. It's not like Silver Star, which shines in the later shaves, nor is it a short-distance peak type like Tiger. It's easy to maintain a "just right" position, making it easy to use as a mainstay for daily use or for comparison with other blades. ▼ Supplement: Background (Why Astra is called the "benchmark blade") Astra SP is a model that is very often recommended by shaving enthusiasts overseas as the "first blade to try." The balance of sharpness and mildness is standard, and it serves as a "measuring stick" to help you judge your preferences, such as "more gentle" or "sharper." It also has high price, availability, and quality stability, making it a valuable blade to have on hand for beginners and experienced users alike. ■ Shipping Method ・Yu-Packet Post mini (anonymous shipping) ・Will be sent with simple packaging Thank you. #HENSONSHAVING #HensonShaving #DoubleEdgedRazor #ReplacementBlades
