Taconic Shave 100 Twin Blade Razor Cartridges With Lubricating Strip - Compatible With All Gillette Trac 2 , G2, G II, Contour, Vector And Gillette Atra Razor Handles - Made In The Usa

Sharp blades that fit my handle - just what I wanted. Way cheaper than any grocery or drugstore.

These are good standard Track II blades that fit the handle I originally bought in the 1980s. How many blades does one need to shave? Two is more than enough. They last as long as any other razer blades and are as sharp. And are easy to use. Most importantly, they are inexpensive and always available - something you cannot say about brick-and-mortar stores.

I get a clean shave for less dollars laid out.

I have had great success using these. Well, one so far. Consider that I use hair conditioner instead of shaving cream when I shave my face. I think the twin blades are a little closer together than the original Gillette cartridges because more conditioner gets caught between the blades. I keep a toothbrush by the sink to clean out between the blades more often, so shaving takes a little longer. I also rinse and dry the cartridge after shaving. So my first cartridge has lasted through about ten shaves so far with smooth skin as the result. I am more than satisfied with my purchase! One can do as I do, or store the razor with the cartridge in baby oil to prevent rust/corrosion. Highly recommended!

I disliked the product because they are not as sharp as the original Gillette Track 2 blades.I shave every day for 54 yrs. Always used the original Track 2.I have a mole on my upper lip. I cut it when I began shaving. It bled and bled. So I was always very careful when shaving around that spot. The first time I used these copies I cut it again, I haven't cut that mole in 54 years.Also with the first shave of these copies. I could feel the drag from the blade on the side of my face. I then knew they were not very good blades. So buyer beware, because they are non returnable.

So, here's the deal. I have an ancient Trac II handle. I have trouble finding blades. If I'm lucky, every now and then the local drugstore has a ten-pack of suitable blades made by some company that may be a private brand. That ten pack costs about twelve dollars.As soon as I got these I put one in the handle. Fits fine. I compared this new one to the drugstore one. (I can't compare it to a Gilette blade because I used them up ten years ago and I have never, ever, seen a Gilette brand Trac II blade for sale anywhere. I think they're an urban legend.) Anyway, these new blades are identical in every single respect to the store blades.So, for the cost of about a dozen of the other blades I just got 100 new blades. I was hesitant about this because it seemed too good to be true. I have no idea what the problem was with people who said the blades didn't fit their handle. But I figured the savings were worth taking a chance. Good decision(Time passes.....)I just shaved with the new one. Smooth, no nicks. Rinsed out fine with a bit of tapping on the edge of the sink. (Shave is much better than those sad, lightweight, cheapy, disposables.) Don't know how long the blade will last, but if it's more than a tenth of the life of the other brand, I'll still be ahead.A sharp deal.

Been using Atra cartridges' for 40 years and these are the best I've ever used. It really surprised me how good they shave. Generally, the Gillette blades work the best for me, and 3rd party blades turn my face into a mess when they're new. Not these blades, I've never been more happy with the shave up a dual blade cartridge. The shave is the closest I've had from an Atra blade, and no issues with nicks (with reasonable attention to what I'm doing). These blades are my new idea of "perfect" for shaving.Having said that, I'll comment about a "negative" some some other reviewers have wrote about with these cartridges.The lubrication strip turns into goo.My answer: Who cares? Really? You use the "Lubrication Strip" to shave? That's a requirement for you to shave?The "Lubrication Strip" was always a gimmick. It's absolutely useless for shaving, I'm not sure who though to put a piece of soap onto a cartridge and try to upsell people on the idea. If you've soaped/foamed your face to shave, the "Lubrication Strip" does nothing. And, if you're dry shaving, the little piece of soap on the cartridge does nothing for you. Nope, nothing. Forget it's even there. Take it off if it bothers you. That way you can focus on how awesome the razor shaves your beard.

I am very happy with these.They work very well so far. If the rest work as well as this first one, I would stay with them from now on ! Good price for this many in the package compared to price of others for less amount. And some of those others did not do this well. I recommend them for now.
