Does anyone know a good source to purchase 100 of these AMAZING DE blades? They're my blade of choice but options seemed to have dried up on the Bay since I last bought them. I really wish I hadn't been quite as generous with my friends with these now...

They are a great blade- my favourite too.
I don’t think they are discontinued however they are just a bit spendie.

Those Gillette Stainless Red & White packs are very hard to get and I know they've stopped making them, so just keep looking and be patient.

The only option are, just get the Gillette Nacet, because, they're very similar to the Gillette Stainless in shaving performance and blade feel.

The name and packaging may have gone but the blades are still around.
Gillette Stainless became Astra Superior Stainless
When P&G bought the Astra branding the old Czech republic factory was closed, and manufacturing was moved to the St Petersberg facility in Russia.

The Czech made Astras were an average to poor blade. Although cheap, you would not want to shave with them if your a serious wet shaver

Smart move for P&G, and good for the end user. Astra blades are still cost effective to be sold in bulk supplies to industry proffesionals, and consumers, and the quality of the blade is far superior to the old product

I would not be surprised if they were the same blade.

The Gillette Nacet is slightly sharper and smoother than the Gillette Stainless Red & White pack, for example, this is how I keep a record of blades and this is how I rate the blade top is very very sharp, lowest is crap.
