Question 1

Are these blades the same ones that are made in India?

Accepted Answer

Yes and No so Ive tracked Gillette marked blades, Made in Egypt, India, Russia and possibly Israel too.
Now my last purchase which are a top class blade and work super are marked:
"Gillette India Limited!".....
From my personal use and observation their a 'Top Grade' product, I got a 'Big Pack' dirt cheap and will certainly buy again.
Granted i was a - bit nervous - as earlier 7 oClock blades I've bought worked super regardless of who the maker was!.
But being a bit older I very well remember and respect the original USA Gillette blades, and yes i recall when i very first tried out the Platinum Blades back when they were marketed here in the USA.
My impression was pretty much the same as now:
They are and were a 'Superior Blade' but for the slightly better cut I just couldn't see the higher cost at that time.
Now today and with modern marketing practice AMAZON.COM  has definitely got the prices leveled down.
But the best blade is - ALWAYS - the blade that works best for you!.
Now for my experiences ALL the 7 '0Clock blades have worked well....
I mainly bought these Super Platinum both because you got - Extra Blades - and bring able to buy a large quantity and at Amazon Prices brought the costs down to an acceptable level so i got an unbeatable deal and went for it!.....
But to be honest I've bought earlier shaving products from Gillette India and the stuff I've received earlier was all exceptional goods at a 'Reasonable Price!.
So my advice is to try a pack of these blades and see for yourself.....
However if your still unsure?????
I'd  buy a couple of the 'Blade Packs' or Samplers of different blades that Amazon sells as thats how i found the 7 '0Clocks.
Then I'd try those out untill I found the blade that works best for you, And try and get a 'Sale Price' on your favorite brand.
Some blades are so very close its really hard to tell, So i take my favorites and get them on sale.
Yes even tho they cost a 'teeny bit' more I stayed with 7 0Clocks because in reading  the reviews a LOT of people now say ARE complaining about 'product switching' Or dull and inferior quality goods (ie Blades).
So for my money and use Gillette 7 '0Clocks, And Gillette India seemed a safe bet and their Blades are good quality!.....
Good Luck In Your Quest!.

Question 2

Are these blades aggressive?

Accepted Answer

If by aggressive you mean sharp, they are not as sharp as the Feather blade, and they are platinum coated, but I would definitely not call them mild. Bear in mind that double-edge blade results are highly subjective due to the number of personal factors that can affect the outcome.
