Cutting Down A Blade?

[micheal]

Had a quick search and did not find the answer (probably used wrong keywords) so ... what tool do I use to cut down a Kai, Feather, etc. AC blade so that it'll work in a Schick and/or Supply SE Razor?

Thanks, Micheal

When I've cut down AC type blades I've used an electric multi tool with a fine cutting wheel. You could at a pinch use a small hacksaw with a fine blade.

Do you round the corner of the cutting edge off where the blade has been cut, or is this not necessary?

Yes I did, good point, I forgot about that. Cheers P. Not a good point, a bad one. Round it off!

Hmmm .. sounds rather nasty. Realize YMMV but in general wonder if the cut-down blade is any better than a Personna or a Pro-line B20?

Not Really..If its Not a Clean Cut Just Dress it Off with a Nail File..

Would a pair of wire cutters do the job?

I've heard nail clippers are pretty good for the job. I'm tempted to try a Feather Pro in my newly-acquired Supply SE...

Thanks guy, I'm now anxious to give it a try ... if only I had a razor

This cutting down that was done was pre B-20s so probably no real need now. things have moved on some..

Why not acquire some Schick Proline Type B blades, they fit the Supply SE & Injectors it loads via a
host keyed dispenser, in the case of the Supply can be loaded manually.

I actually have some en route! Great minds! I'm just too curious for my own good...

Tin snips are a specialist tool for cutting sheet metal. They get through most blades as if they were paper
