Hey guys,
I have recently shaved my head and I am looking into buying an headblade moto. I did send a query to headblade but their answer was.. bad to say the least. They missspelled like 10 words, including my name. Their answer was not helpful at all, but I was not expecting it to me, as it was regarding non-HB replacement blades.
So, hopefully you fine folks can help me. First, let me start by saying that I find it pathetic that the blades are not compatible across all HB products and we've to buy adapters and research on what fits what... And 18eur for official blades? Damn.
So, I am interesting in the HB moto but I want cheaper blades, so I am looking for compatible blades that will fit the moto. I heard of dorco blades, namely these ones: https://www.amazon.es/Dorco-Pace-4-Cuchillas-afeitar/dp/B01DP0KKN8/ref=sr_1_13?keywords=dorco&s=gateway. I guess those would be compatible with some sort of adapter, right? Now, HB's site has 3 adapters!! Jesus christ:
1. https://www.headblade.eu/en/hb3-adapter.html
2. https://www.headblade.eu/en/gillette-sensor-adapter.html
3. https://www.headblade.eu/en/hb4-hb6-adapter.html
So, my question is: Which adapter should I buy for the HB moto in order to save some good $$ on the blades?
I would also love if you guys could provide links to alternative blades (from an european seller) and reference to which adapter I need for said blades. Really sorry for asking so much of you, but this really confuses me.
Thank you very much in advance.
Thank you for the reply Brucifer!
I should probably also buy the gillete sensor adapter, right? In the future I might want to use gillete sensor blades (I guess those are readily available).
Also, you suggest I get the ATX or the Moto? Which one is "better"?
Thank you again!

You would need the hb4-6 adapter to use the 4 and 6 blade carts... when you get the cartridges you need to remove the universal adapter with a pair of pliers. Shown in this video here
If you buy the ATX you won't need the adapters...
You mention something about needing to acquire a HB4-HB6 adapter if one wants to use the 6 blades. Do the HB6 blades come with the adapter you're speaking of? Just trying to get clarification on that detail.
Thank you.

Yes, the Moto comes with that adapter.
@HANDSHAVED I personally use the twin blades on my Moto, but it's my understanding that the 6 blades will work with a minor adjustment to the cartridge.
Do you use the twin blades for irritation reduction? Which attachment did you need to use the twins on your Moto?

I find that I get the best shave with the twin blades. I use this adapter - https://www..com/product/91206.html
