Great shave. The Astra green blades have been working very well for the last couple shaves. I’m a bit shy to order a whole sleeve of them though. I ordered a sleeve of Personna blades after I had a great tuck of them and the whole sleeve sucks. They are packaged different, same brand and model, and perform terribly.

Nice Project. I frequently read about self hosting and do it yourself type media servers but have yet to apply any time to doing anything about it.

Thank you for the work you put in to this community!

Good shave. This scent is the current house 2nd favourite next to Fleur De France. This blade seems a bit dull but it could be me.
