Both a bit of a let down to be honest. Gillette Guard is IMO the ultimate clog proof cart and other than the very cheap feel of the handle it felt OK initially. Then I got nicks on a couple spots, definitely not an MR3 or HeadBlade Moto smooth. BTW, I had a couple very very nice shaves with the moto this week. I think I shines on every day to every other day shaves.
I need to stop procrastinating and buy some replacement blades for my headblade sport. does anyone have a list of compatible blades it can use?
There is a lot of confusion/disinformation/omission on headblade razor/blade compatibility. Seems like HB is going the proprietary blade route.
When you have a razor you need to know what cart type it came with to know what holder you have.
This is what I learned from the admin at a another forum.
There are three adapters/holders: sensor (only for sensors), HB2-3 (atra and other 2-blade cartridges), and HB4-6 (dorco pace 4 and 6, with a small mod to make it work). At some point these holders were easily distinguishable by color, but that no longer applies.
Now, the thing is HB says holders are not 100% interchangeable, yet some users say the moto takes all 3 holders while HB's website suggests and implies it only takes the HB4-6 holder/adapter. IME, HB doesn't give definitive answers and instead gives an answer around the following lines: "it was designed to take the blades our users favored on previous models and that is the HB4".
