Title: HeadBlade ATX Blades
Post by: Mr. Wiggly on September 30, 2015, 09:42:22 PM

So for the ATX, adapters don't work do they? Only HB razors? If so, that's a bummer.

You can use any HeadBlade adapter on the ATX and the blades that associate with that adapter.  For example, I prefer to use the HB3 blades on my ATX with the standard yellow adapter.

Where do I get with the adapters? I don't think my headblade came with any.

The adaptors generally come with the blades when you buy them, at least the HB4 does.

But the adapters are for non headblade razors right? I wanna use non hb razors for my atx, because the hb razors are kind of expensive IMO.

With the black adapter you can use any blade that fits the Gillette Sensor handle and with the yellow adapter you can use any blade that fits the Gillette Atra handle.

I recently put an HB3 with the yellow adapter on my ATX, just to try it out.  I liked it!  While HeadBlade does not recommend this, I much preferred the HB 3 blade in the ATX than the HB4 which I felt did not give a close enough shave.

So maybe I'll start using my ATX more now.

Roughly how many shaves do you get out of a single HB cartridge?
