There’s a bunch of reviews on Amazon that say the Astra blades have changed are not as good as they used to be. Has anyone experienced this?
How do I do that?This should be moved to the blade forum.
They will. Just one of the parts of their thankless job, lol.The Mods will likely take care of it for you eventually.
My Astra SS have that light laser print on them. My old ones didn't.Received a 100 pack of ASP recently. I am surprised to get those with the black print on the blades. It's ok for me, I like them. The new ones apparently have a light laser print instead. As I have not tried the new ones (by Procter & Gamble) I cannot comment on any differences.
On the other hand, I have read a few critics in other forums about the new blue Astra SS (Astra Stainless Steel). But that goes into the Astra SS thread.
Could be. If a person makes one penny off of one blade, that ain't bad money if you sell a whole bunch.I bought a box of Astra SP's off ebay, and they aren't as good.
They also have no etchings on the blades.
I think they might be counterfeits.
I'll have to compare the two you mentioned. The SP did get better for me after a half dozen shaves, but I won't be buying any. Who'm I kiddin'? I don't need to buy any blades in this lifetime!I got Astra SS (laser etched) which are good. I find them better than the painted Astra SP.

That's a beautiful dog! My neighbor was a coon hunter back in the day. I grew up playing with puppies and coons, ha.
Right here in mid Michigan. Between Flint and Saginaw.Thanks.
She has long since gone on, but I still have some of her blood in my kennel.
I hunted one of them tonight.
If you don't mind me asking, where were you raised?
I always thought Astra SP blades were somewhat harsh. The Gillette 7O’Clock SharpEdge trumps it. So does Astra Superior Stainless.I find, that if anything, the Astra SS is better now than it was. I have no idea about the SP, as I don't have or want anymore SP blades. They are not as kind to my face as the SS.
IMO the Astra SS is sharper and smoother than Astra SP. Astra SP longevity may be better. YMMVI got Astra SS (laser etched) which are good. I find them better than the painted Astra SP.
