So, the shavette ... the one that takes half DE blades, using an injector blade ... should it go in the straight edge, single edge, single edge blades, double edge or double edge blades forum? Bother! General shaving, it is ...

So, the shavette ...



Looks kosher, but let's crack it open ...



... unless you can't see it, let's pull the blade out:



Nifty, eh?

I have a similar shavette but where are those blades from?

... they're simple injector blades, like you'd use with a Schick injector razor.

It's a regular shavette otherwise, one that would take a half DE blade. No modification, just a happy coincidence that they fit

Ahh not seen injector blades out side of the injector before would possibly work better in this type of shavette as I find they don't hold a split de blade too great

... couldn't be any worse (I'm not an injector fan)

You're right - the top clip holds this blade very tight; absolutely no chance of it slopping about.

... just neatened up my neck line with this. Safe, smooth and absolutely irritation-free using just Nuage Men Shaving Oil.
