1. Perma-Sharp Super
Characterized by its golden packaging, this is a premium replacement blade praised by barbers and enthusiasts worldwide. It boasts an overwhelming sharpness, approaching the very high sharpness of Feather (Japanese-made), considered the pinnacle. It shaves off even tough and dense beards in one go without snagging. Despite its sharpness, it offers a surprisingly smooth feel on the skin, defying the common notion that sharp blades cause skin irritation. It also has excellent durability, maintaining its sharpness for multiple shaves.

2. Blue Astra Superior Stainless
This is the model with the blue packaging from the globally renowned replacement blade brand Astra. (Note: This is different from the well-known green-packaged Astra Platinum). This blade features a solid, uncoated stainless steel edge, unlike the platinum coating found on green Astras. Because it lacks a coating, the blade edge directly contacts the beard, providing a sharper and more direct cutting feel than green Astras. It's characterized by the ticking feedback (sound and sensation) that is easily transmitted to your hand while shaving. It offers a good balance between mildness and sharpness, providing a close shave sufficient for daily use, though not as intensely sharp as Perma-Sharp.

Thank you for viewing.
