Description
Product Overview
Gillette Platinum double edge blades are made in Russia and are one of the longest-running blades still produced under the Gillette name. Each blade is stainless steel with a platinum coating, supplied in the familiar green and white tuck.
They are widely regarded by shavers as a middle-of-the-road blade in terms of sharpness, which is part of why they remain a common choice in blade rotations and sampler packs.
Blade Characteristics
- ✓ Stainless steel blade with a platinum coating
- ✓ Standard double edge format that fits DE safety razors
- ✓ Often described by shavers as moderately sharp rather than aggressive
- ✓ Supplied in sealed paper tucks of five blades

Blade sharpness, smoothness and comfort are subjective. Results vary depending on your razor, beard, skin, preparation and shaving technique.

Mr Shave –
Wow! Shaved for the first time with these and gave one of the best shaves I’ve ever had!
A lot like an older double-wrapped Gillette Silver blue blade I shaved with recently. Sharp&Smooth. Unbelievably good value for money. Came in nice sealed cardboard sleeve for storage.
Wesley Huffman –
I’ve gone through about 6 of these razors so far, they last for about 8-10 shaves depending on how often you shave, and I haven’t noticed any rust building up on the blade like I have on some other brands. Super sharp and easy to shave with!
Joe Tomlin –
I’ve noticed some people have left negative reviews questioning if these are real or counterfeit. Based on the print on the blades . Older stock uses the dark print. Newer stock uses a newer etching process. They are the same blades just a newer way of labeling

Out of all the blades I’ve tried these seem to be the only ones that don’t tug on my hair when I shave
John Fud Zavacki –
These blades a BRAND NEW (no “used” blades as one reviewer stated- a ridiculous claim).
There is nothing stuck to the blades but the waxed paper wrapper which are held in place by four miniscule drops of a very weak glue that are now here near the shaving edge (why anyone would feel the need to scrub this off if it stained is beyond me).
Some may have painted lettering, some may have etched lettering- they are, however the SAME genuine, excellent Gillette Platinum blades. This fact was passed along to me by the seller when in regards to my enquiry and later confirmed with my own eyes and shaving experience.
These are my favorite blades and I’ve been using them as long or longer than most novice reviews have been on earth, so take my advice and buy these blades. You’ll never find a better deal on a better razor blade, anywhere.
Marky Maaark –
I found this blade to be sharp and smooth. It seems to work well in many of my razors. I would definitely order again especially if they are on sale as they were when I first purchased them. A quality shave from a quality blade
Chris Bernhard –
Just use it once like it was intended and you will be very satisfied
Naveed Ahsan –
Good value for money
Ian –
I was hesitant to not go with Feather, but these work just fine.
Alexander Colon –
Used these and the shave perfectly. I am glad I swapped to these.
Larry Soblotne –
These blades are comfortable and efficient. It is at a great price too!
Bek –
Okay, if you’re new to safety razors and are looking for blades, first I’d recommend getting the variety sample pack which comes with blades from different brands. Once you find yours, you can continue. But my bet is that you’ll come back here because these are really good. The Feather ones are notorious but I ain’t Chewbacca. These are ideal daily use ones.
Juan –
Great blades smooth, sharp and not harsh on skin at least on mine. I got sensitive skin these blades do well I shave my head and face I use the same blade for a least 3 shaves 3 passes, so they are durable that is basically 3 shaves in one week for me. Now as far as cost go sometimes you’ll find them on Amazon from $9.98 all the way to $13+ so u gotta check to see when they’re on sale. These blades for 9.98 u have to snatch them up can’t pass on at that price. Have a good shave ladies n gents
Michael –
I like the double edge been using one since started shaving. You have to remember not to make quick turns. And what I pat for a hundred pack costs less than 2 of the others
veritas vos liberabit –
Great smooth blades. The only issues with them is the too much glue holding the package wrapper.
