Review on ✂️ Dorco Prime Platinum STP-301 Double Edge Blades: Double Coated, Extra Sharp, 100 Blades - Minimize Irritation by Laura Lamb

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Sharp but not as sharp as before

I shave about once a week so 100 blades lasts a long time. I received a set of different blades from a DE razor I bought which the seller included as a 'gift'. Over a year ago some of them were surprisingly boring straight out of the box, but Dorco Prime Platinum was good. Sharp but not too sharp, smooth but not so smooth that you lose control, they held the blade about 3 times before starting to pull. These *new* blades aren't as good as the old standard "gift" blades, get 1 good shave from them, the 2nd shave you have to flip and/or twist before you're done. You could do with a third, but that would be cumbersome, which, if you're a curmudgeon like me, will disappoint you. On the plus side, these blades are cheap and you get two decent shaves with them. In all honesty, you should probably change your blade every time you shave for hygiene reasons. Will I buy them again? Probably.
