Astra SP
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Astra always pairs well with my Henson.
- I love Astra SPs and those are my go-tos.
- For blades, I like Treet Platinum or Astra Superior Platinum. They are not the sharpest but certainly they are not bottom tier blades either. I can easily shave 4-5 times with them (about a week of shaving) without any noticeable degrada...
- I'd start with an astra sp.
- As of right now I prefer the Leaf Thorn paired with an Astra SP.
Cons
- Astra SP is decent but my skin doesn’t agree with it., gives me bad burn and leaves my skin feeling tight for hours.
- Haven't tried Astra yet. I do own it though, so I'll review it next.
- Also, Astras tend to give me bad cuts when my beard is stubbled for example 2 days after shave
- To keep things mild and gentle my combo was R3 and green Astra but it didn't work out as I expected.
- I used Astra SP a few days ago, and they felt similar at first, but I find Treet Platinum even friendlier than Astra.

For blades, I like Treet Platinum or Astra Superior Platinum. They are not the sharpest but certainly they are not bottom tier blades either. I can easily shave 4-5 times with them (about a week of shaving) without any noticeable degradation or loss of comfort.

I got my Titanium Satin Athena last week. Astra SP in it was an absolutely incredible shave.
