Post by: ugabulldog on January 03, 2008, 07:00:20 PM
I have been researching face shaving (since i hate doing it so much) looking for a better way, maybe de safety razors, still deciding, but I came across this and wanted to share: http://www.classicshaving.com/catalog/item/522941/355881.htm

UGA, someone posted that a couple of months back.  It looks like the same principle as the headblade, but looks alot more sturdy.  I couldn't tell what type of blades it used.  Didn't look like the Atra type attachment.  Like Timmy said, give it a try and let us know.

It uses the same Merkur pivoting cartridge adapters as the Headblade.

I saw this in person when I was visiting HeadBlade's HQ.  Todd was showing it to me.  One of the things about it is that the adapter doesn't fit snug on the device, so it looks like you could cut yourself pretty easily.

as mentioned before, it seams to have the same concepts as the good ol headblade with less moving parts (less stuff to break), but if stuff doesn't fit, my guess is they really haven't made the design a priority to prefect.  of course it never hurt to try.  maybe Todd had an old one or something.
