Doesn't fit right.

They were advertised as compatible with razors that use Gillette Track II blades; However, this is not the case. My razor, which I have used for years with Gillette Track II blades, does not fit these knockoffs due to the bulge in the center of the replacement blades where the blades slide. I noted that in the uploaded photos. There are 3 connection points on the back of these blades that hold them together; 2 are flush with the base of the razor and 1 (middle) is raised higher. This will…

  • Nicely

Will not fit my Track II Solid Brass Handle

I just received an order for Persona Twin II blades. They look great, identical to Gillette, but when I tried to insert the handle into the blade it only moved halfway. Upon further investigation I found a small tab/knot in the center of the blade's mounting side that prevented that my Track II handle slipped completely over the blade. It was very frustrating and I didn't want to return them and I had to pay 15x the Gillette model. I was able to get the blades to work by taking my sharp knife…

Blades fit Trac2 and shave clean

Blades fit my 10 year old Trac 2 razor. They also fit my Trac 2 Taconic compatible full metal razor. There isn't a cleaning slot, but even with the slot, I use an old toothbrush to clean the slot. Does this dull the blade? I do not know! I just shaved with new blades and got a close shave with no nicks. The blades do not move after installation. I don't know how long they stay sharp but if this review goes on for a while I'll come back and update this review on how long the blades stay sharp…

Low price but still not worth buying

They're inexpensive and fit the Trac II grip, but that's where the good news ends. See my photo of this blade (used once) alongside a real Trac II blade that has been in use for several weeks. This blade is made from a single piece of plastic, and the original Trac II blade is perforated to allow that remaining mustache to be flushed away, leaving the blades clean for the next cut. With nowhere to go, the tendrils stay attached to the blades until you remove the handle and clean it by hand. My…

Good value for money - cartridges and refills

These are decent blades and a good alternative to the brand name. Sometimes I get a blade that doesn't seem to be properly calibrated, but most of the time it works fine. I have a feeling they might last a shave less than branded ones but at this price they can last twice as long and are still worth it. Razor blades are one of the few things that I almost always prefer the brand name, so the fact that I like them says something.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Neutral

Personna blades are very good

I'll admit I was skeptical at first. But $20 for a pack of ten blades is getting ridiculous. My examination of ten blades under a tenfold microscope shows straight, uniform blades with no visible imperfections. They fit perfectly on the Trac II handle and the blade holder works too. Next comes my sharpness test - I got 15 razors off a Personna blade (sample one) as many as I got from expensive Trac II blades. I am NOT saying you will shave 15 times. Maybe my facial hair is lighter. I go by the…

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Low repairability

Close shave, low price

I have a beard. That doesn't mean I don't need a razor to clean the edges. I'm also very annoyed at how much the cost of Trac II blades has gone up and that you can't just go to the store and buy them over the counter (anti-theft y'know). When I ordered these I had pretty low expectations given the quantity per pack and the low, low price. Actually I'm very impressed. They offer a good, close shave that rivals brand name cartridges. I'm also pretty sure 100 per pack will be used in the 2020s as
