These are fascinating razors really. And...they scare the heck out of me! I thing that curved blade would be a real bugger to use. I can see carving out nice thin slabs with it. Yikes. I could be wrong about that, but this may remain a razor I don't even wanna try. Razorism I guess.
I wouldn't think an injector blade would flex enough to be used with this. You would probably have to sharpen the originals by hand.
It is an SE though so it does need a thread here. Good job on selecting this razor to feature.

I'd advise being very careful when opening the razor to insert a new blade. I have an idea that it could spring open and throw the old blade across the room.

The lid has four little clamps. Two at the hinge and two at the clasp. When, in open position, you place a blade you place it (straight, not bent) against the lid with one end in the clamps at the hinge. When you next close the lid, the other end of the blade basically slides towards the hinges near the lid. These graps the blade before it starts bending and hold the blade in place when closing, but also when opening the lid. When opening the lid, the clamps hold the blade until the blade is straight and has no more stress. Even when not following instructions and popping the lid open without holding it, I did not (yet) manage to launch the blade in any direction. Tried about four times, so it may happen yet, but I think the design helps prevent throwing blades around.

Throwing blades around. Ninja shaver!
