I like the Ted Pella injector blades. Work really well for me. Last two packs I got came from TSD store. Was looking over there and did not see them in their store this time.
Anyone know where I can get some of those blades other than going to Pella?

Not sure about that. Recently I got ahold of some Chinese blades branded for discount stores. Freds in MS and Long's on AZ. They are affordable and shave great for me. Then again I love Treets so go figure.

Tell me Fuzzy about the Chinese blades. I have heard of them but only as "Chinese" blades. What brand name is on them. I may be able to find them somewhere.

www.razorbladesandmore.com sell the Personna 7 blade dispenser, which is who makes the blades for Ted Pella, probably the same blade.

Thanks HT for the lead. I did find a 20 blade pack of these like I have now on Connaught Shaving site. Your link gives me another outlet.
But what I want to consider is the Chinese blades. What brand(s) do they come under? Or are they just store brand blades and I need to see where they were made?

I'm kind of curious myself about the Chinese blades. As far as I know the only injectors made in China are the Schicks, and I never knew of them making any store brand blades. All of the store brands like CVS, Rite Aid etc were made by ASR right here in the US of A with the crappy plastic dispenser.
I prefer the Chinese made Schicks because the dispenser and blades work better for me than the ASR's.

OK Fuzzy goofed.. grrrrrr
Some how are the other I got the ideal that these blades were made in China.... I am not sure how I got that notion but it is incorrect.
These store brand blades are ASR blades.. the ones in the plastic thingie. Sorry about that guys.. I think they shave great by the way. I have some NOS Schick and Personna blades and can not tell the difference myself.

I found some Chinese Schicks in a mom & pop pharmacy today. Now I just have to decide which injector gets to try one of these blades out first... E2, I1, or L1? To date I've only used Ted Pella blades so I look forward to seeing what (if any) differences I note.

I used my grandfather's I1 this morning with the Chinese Schick and it provided a splendid shave. I plan on using this blade until it dies. After that I'll give my impressions and compare it to the Pella/Personna blades I normally use.

Hello all,
I've tried the Ted Pella, Personna, and the Schick (Chinese). Personally, if I couldn't use the Schicks I wouldn't use an injector razor. That's how much I like 'em.
I'll be glad to PIF the Pellas and whatever I have left of the Personnas if anyone wants 'em.
John
