I find it kind of odd that ASR (American Safety Razor) essentially made their "super blade" invisible by changing the packaging over the years, but, for whatever reason, that's exactly what they did.
As you can see in the first picture, ASR clearly touted the fact that their blades were alloyed with tungsten all over the packaging and dispenser with the Personna 74* and Tungsten Plus wording (there was also a package with a banner across the dispenser that said Tungsten Steel). Then, in the second picture, the dispenser remained the same, but the package was printed with the words Super Platinum Chrome Blades. In the third picture, both package and dispenser say Super Platinum Chrome Blades, but the back of the package clearly says that the blades are alloyed with platinum, tungsten, and chrome, and the blade itself is marked Personna 74* and Tungsten Plus -- so they are the real deal. The strangest ones are in the last picture with the same wording as before on the back of the package (with newer striped design on front and touting Comfort Coated), but the blades have no wording other than MADE IN U.S.A. You also see that the last ones have a date of 1995 on the back, so the 74* blades appear to have been made for a longer period of time than was perhaps originally believed.
