Also a correction to above, the Gillette Platinum I tested wasn't the dark blue ones, it was the newer light blue Platinum which I didn't find anything special about.
Today I shaved with a Nacet for the first time. Very sharp blade, probably sharper then the Astra but didn't cut any closer for me and wasn't as smooth as the Astra but it's in the top 4-5 I've tried so far.
For me first place is Astra SP, second place Gillette GSB, third place Astra SS.
To go back to the Astra SS, the first tuck I used were very sharp and felt similar to the Nacet but were a little smoother then the Nacet. A very nice blade. The second tuck I only used one blade and found it nowhere near as sharp and found it similar to the mediocre blades like the Personna reds. I have 2 new tucks from RazorBladesClub to test out and hope to find they are both good as well. If so, I will likely order a full 100 pack.
