Brush?I have to concur, an Astra SP is a fantastic brush!

We've all done thatNick_s, that did make me laugh though. Not as bad as writing to a really good female customer using my iphone and her name was Viginia!!!!
Nail. Head. They've worked for me in every razor, except one (Ranger Tech) - I got rid of the razor.One of my all time favourites. I don't think they've ever delivered a poor shave, no matter what DE razor I've used them with.
I like them, and they perform well-enough for me in many razors. However, I did have a nasty experience with them this morning.Just ordered 100 of them! That is how great I think they are. Might even start a fan club!
I got the same experience. It's the best blade for me for the S1, while lasting 2-3 shaves. For the S2, I find that 7 o'clock yellows, or Polsilver SI work best for me.I like them, and they perform well-enough for me in many razors. However, I did have a nasty experience with them this morning.
In common with anyone who owns more than one razor, and doesn't stick to one blade model or type, I tend to try different blades in different razors. This isn't very planned; just what I haul from the drawer for that day's razor, so it's a lottery.
As things go, I put an Astra Superior Platinum into my ATT S2, and went at it. The result is a reasonably clean shave, but tremendous irritation. I've not tried this razor/blade combination before, and it's pretty evident that they are unsuited. Why, I'm not sure, but maybe it's to do with it being a slant.
On the other hand, an Astra in a Tech, Slim or Fatboy works just fine for me.
