Lancet Platinum DE Blade
The Lancet Platinum DE Blade is a budget-friendly double-edge blade that caters to shavers looking for affordability without completely compromising on performance. After testing it across multiple shaves, here’s an honest breakdown of its performance:
Sharpness and Smoothness:
The Lancet Platinum DE Blade offers moderate sharpness. It is not as aggressive as premium blades like Feather, but it gets the job done, especially for those with lighter beard growth. On coarser beards, it may require extra passes, which could increase irritation for sensitive skin.
In terms of smoothness, the blade feels relatively comfortable on the skin, but it's not the silkiest. It’s better suited for those who are more experienced in maintaining proper technique and angle during a shave.
Durability:
One of the drawbacks is its longevity. While the blade provides a decent shave for the first 2-3 uses, it tends to dull faster than higher-end options. If you're someone who shaves daily, you might need to replace it more frequently.
Versatility:
The blade works well with a variety of razors, particularly mild and medium-aggression razors. However, pairing it with an aggressive razor may lead to nicks or irritation, especially on sensitive skin.
Value for Money:
The Lancet Platinum blade is one of the more affordable options on the market. For its price, it delivers decent performance and is a good option for beginners experimenting with different blades or for those who shave less frequently.
Overall Verdict:
The Lancet Platinum DE Blade is a decent option for those on a budget or with lighter beard growth. While it doesn't compete with premium blades in terms of sharpness or longevity, it offers a reasonable shave at an affordable price. If you’re looking for a blade to use for occasional shaving or to explore cost-effective options, it’s worth trying.
