Yeah, I'll pile on the call headblade train.  They seem to stand behind their product.  I wouldn't recommend anyone give up on the headblade until they try the Sensor 3 family of cartridges.  O0

buy me some and I promise not to give up on the headblade until I try them :D

but seriously how much do the sensor cartridges cost? I hate the fact my 14 dollar headblade collects dust because the triple blade that comes with them sucks.

email Mac at headblade.com  (That's his email) and I'm sure he'll hook you up.

I buy Gillette Custom Plus 3 disposables for about 5 bucks for 4.  I take the cartridge off of them and use them on my Headblade.  Last just as long as the ones in the package.  Plus they have covers that go over the cartridge.  They are my favorite.  :@`

Walmart.  They are disposables with the handle.  You just take the cartridge off of them and your golden. Put it on the black adapter.  Works just as good as a package of cartridges but it cost about half of the price.  O0

I wish I could take credit Oz, but I read it from another member a long time ago.  Just wish I could remember who it was so I could give them due credit.

Just got my Classic in the mail today and ran the doubles it came with after a nice hot shower.....I never remember the doubles ever giving this good of a shave but it was fantastic, I had less passes than with the trips, no cuts and plus I didn't have to do extra passes.....

I'm using up the rest of my triples that I have and definitely gonna invest in some doubles  O0

That's good news!  My Atra II cartridges always gave me a super closer shave.  I just nicked my self a lot more with them.

This is kind of a new revelation for me, I've always been using the triples....not a quite a fan of them and I tolerate them but the doubles IMO a better shave tenfold and there isn't any comparison...the doubles just ride well on my scalp and it doesn't drag at all like the triples do, everyone I talk to that have cut them selves with the atra say the same thing...there's seem to be more space in the blades and the angles....

Atras never cut me but just irritated the hell out of me post shave but was smooter.

I wish they sold Classics at the store.  I don't like that wheel on my Sport.  It makes it almost too bulky.  I really like the Custom cartridges.  For me they make a big difference.  But that is what makes the HB so cool.  I can switch it around to make it work for me and so can you.  Name another razor that can do that!

I don't either...the Classic model is where its at for me, I like the angle of it better and I get better shaves with it.

I may have to revisit the old classic just to see if I too get a better shave.   :)
