Israeli Personna Stainless Double Blades Review

When I received these blades I looked at the packaging without seeing the country of origin. I opened the single sheet packaging. Nothing is printed on the blade but the inscription "Personna Platinum". I have tried blades from different manufacturers with different blade types. That's why I chose the Merkur mK34C. I have Gillette Fat Boys, Gillette Adjustable Fat Boys and more. Nothing compares to Mercury. I found Israeli blades as good as Mercury blades in heaven. The best shave I've ever…

I assumed these were supposed to be the same blades as Personna in red packaging just for a different market. I couldn't be more disappointed. Personna in red box are the best blades I have ever used, they are as sharp as Gillette Platinum but a little smoother and I was hoping they would be the same but after using them today it was, like shaving a stone. I've been wet shaving for almost 5 years and my face hasn't been this irritated since I first used a safety razor. If you're buying them…

I have been using the Personna 5 pack red safety blades for a year and am very happy with them having tried many other brands. I had to reorder and opted for the blue pack of 10. I thought it was the same blade in a different box. After using it I say no, it's the same blade! The red set gave me a good shave twice before I had to change blades. The third shave tugged at the blade and caused irritation. With the blue 10-pack, my second shave was just as good as the first, so I left it and tried…

Have been using them individually for over a year now. I have to put them at the top of the stack as I usually want to access them. First off I would like to say that these blades do NOT have the best "face feel". While they don't feel bad, I notice the feel of the blade more than some. However, I get noticeably less irritation and a smoother shave with them than any other. I wondered if the noticeable facial sensation made me shave slower and better, or if they just work better. Whatever the…

Having used the Wilkinson Sword razor blade for a long time I didn't want to try another blade but I've had trouble finding blades on the shelf and online. During a dermatological procedure, I noticed the doctor using these Personna blades along with his surgical instruments. When I asked about them, he explained that he had been using them for many years and thought they were quality blades. He tried me and I was very happy with them. Now I prefer them because Personna blades last longer…

I have used different blades like Derby, Shark, Dorko and Van der Hag. This is the best I've used. I've never had such a close shave with anything else and no irritation even after multiple passes through my neck. I have sensitive skin and this is a miracle. This is now my favorite blade.

Like many other men, I've gone back to wet shaving with a safety razor and double-edged blades. It just didn't make sense to pay $1-2+ for a shave on disposable razors and I disagree that 3-5 blades is good for your skin and not good for a closer shave. They only cause burns and bumps. Canned shaving cream definitely doesn't help. The problems have gone away since I switched back and the cost has gone down. These blades are the biggest change for me. Double-edged blades are very, very expensive

When I first started using a DE safety razor I used Personna Blue blades. I love these blades! But apparently you won't accidentally get the blue-wrapped blades by ordering them now. So for a few bucks more I rolled for Platinum Blades and I'm so glad I did! These are high quality blades! They come in packs of ten plastic dispensers, ten dispensers per box. Plastic dispensers make them ideal for travel. I shave 5 days a week, do a grain razor and then an anti grain razor and one of these lasts…

I have been shaving DE for over 5 years after years of using 3, 4 and 5 blade cartridges. I have an Edwin Jagger DL 89 and have been using Wilkinson Sword blades since the beginning. It's a good blade, but I decided to try these Personna chrome-plated stainless steel blades and the difference is amazing. Personna is much sharper but not aggressive. They're easier to apply to the face, and while they also require a light touch (razor weight) they shave smoother with fewer passes, which literally
