Just make sure that you use the black adaptor, rather than the yellow one...
I left the yellow adapter on & use the atras. Doesn't seem to make any difference.

I was going by the info from Headblade... the black is meant for double blades and the yellow is for triple blades.
I'll switch mine out tomorrow or the next day and see if there is any difference.

The yellow adapter seems to be a bit stiffer than the black one. I get a smoother, more comfortable shave with the Sport than with my S4. Maybe I should put the yellow adapter on the S4 and try that.

My black adapter won't fit the AtraPlus blades I bought, only the yellow one. Though, the black one will fit the Sensor Blades.

There's another black adapter (came with the HB Classic) that looks just like the yellow one, which is totally different than the black Sensor adapter...

I agree Medic, I tried it this morning and noticed a difference in the two adapters. I like the yellow one with the Atra blades...It's niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice. Say it with me...niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice

Hey JB,
Since you're in the know with HeadBlade, are there any plans to develop an adaptor for using either MachIII or Fusion blades?

I love the Headblade Sport, i have the classic and loved it but the sport is alot better. however I want to try the S4 however the price is a little high to convince my gf to allow me to get it.as well I'm not sure if I want to spend $75 which would look more like 80 in canada and than shipping would be in the 100 might not be worth it.

That would be a huge business mistake on their part as it would open up another avenue for men to repeatedly purchase their blades. Gillete makes most of their money on blades, not the actual handle.
Though, it would be smarter for HeadBlade to have their own blades that compete in quality with the Mach III and Fusion blades as it would provide HeadBlade with more repeat business.
JB, here's an idea that you can pass onto Todd and Mac, you can even claim it as your own. Let them know that they should setup a "service" that will automatically send out blades on a pre-determined schedule - charging a card for payment. That way they wouldn't have to remember buy blades at the store.

But Atra and the Sensor are Gillette products... and as Tyler said, it would make sense for Gillette from a business standpoint...
