You're welcome.Thanks for resurrecting this old thread! Looks like an interesting blade.

The fact you can find the Croma in some stores doesn't mean they are still manufactured.I am resuming dealing and writing here about Croma Diamant blade which as you can read in the old posts is produced in Feintechnik industries in Germany.
It is no longer found very easily so my following question whether it is still in production?
Unfortunately, I have not found any useful information.
I also cannot figure out what blades are currently in production in Feintechnik industries.
Brief personal evaluations of the razor blade.
Simple blade is a stainless.
View attachment 1819904
More than decent depth of cut, smoothness of the blade and especially the total smoothness of this blade on the skin.
It has a medium sharpness but at the same time really gentle,it has a definite depth of cut.
On an Italian forum a user wrote that as a feeling he finds it halfway between an Astra SP and an Astra SS, I wouldn't know because I haven't tried Astra SS for a long time but the Astra SP is definitely sharper and more aggressive.
I have been using this blade for many years, I still have leftover blades from an old purchase of two hundred pieces in the blue color pack.
There is also a red color package there are five blades and in the large carton one hundred pieces.
It is the only blade that with any razor I have tried it has never left me with irritation, redness or red dots on my face.
I would recommend it to everyone, especially because of the smoothness of the blade to those with sensitive skin.
Little to say about the rest simple wrapping, blue cardboard package,really minimal packangin.
If interested in the coming days I will post more photos.
I was reading an older post above an experienced user who wrote about comparisons of this blade with the old Elios and Bolzano produced in Germany in the same factories.
Unfortunately, the German Elios and Bolzano I tried many, many years ago and cannot make comparisons.
Of German productions there was a blade called "Morris Inox Stainless" ,now discontinued, for me it was clearly superior to Croma Diamant.
I will try to see if I can find Morris Inox and Croma Diamant again.

Hello!
Can you give me information if the Croma Diamant double edge blades are
still being manufactured. I am asking specifically about the Croma
Diamant double edge branded blades and not other double edge blades
manufactured by Feintechnik. Thank You!
Kind regards,
Ivan XXXXXXXX

I have never claimed otherwise.The fact you can find the Croma in some stores doesn't mean they are still manufactured.

I wrote to Feintechnik and asked. They don't manufacture any DE blades any more. Here is the email correspondence.
Dear Mr. XXXXXXX,
thank you very much for your email.
We don't produce Double Edge Blades anymore.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

These Croma Stabil I thought were out of production for years now and sold only in Germany.
@Jopo Where did you purchase them? That is where can they be purchased?
@Jopo Thank you for updating us and providing information about this Stabil Chroma blade.
New to me. The information I had been able to find was just that they were sold in East Germany and other communist countries in Europe until the first half of the 1990s and judging from the photos I thought they were no longer produced, I was not aware of this blade currently being sold in Vietnam.
If you have any more information I ask could it be that in addition to being produced in Egypt the Stabil Chroma may also be produced in Vietnam?
