Brought these some time ago, one set mislaid [ found in garage ] One is very plain, the gilt one with has art deco type stripes on the head. Had a brief look at blades, they seem pretty fair, no significant rust on cutting edge. May one day be brave enough to give one a spin. .

I've always been intrigued by these, but not ever bought one. How exactly does the blade fit and secure in these?

If yo you look at the photo,you can see that the blade has tangs on each side which allows the blade to be inserted into the head. Mike Ps Can do separate shot of blade if i have not made it clear.

Ah! I've been unable to figure out how they stopped in ... I can (just) see a ridge under the back of the cap which would do that, I think. To release, press from above where the back of the cap has that curved indent. Is that right?

I have one of these and wish there were blades currently available. But there are not and the razor takes a proprietary blade. I think there was a thread on another board on how to modify an injector blade to work. Will have to check that out.

Perhaps grind off the front edge from an Enders blade and use it as a stopper/guide for an injector blade?

Yes, I believe that was it. Plus the injector blade needs to be trimmed as well
