Recently, the Schick Prolines were taken off the list of blades recommended by Blackland because they do not consistently fit the Vector. What are peoples favorite blades for the Vector that are currently recommended by Blackland?
I bought 200 or so Prolines from Japan a couple of years ago. So far, they've all fit my Vector.Unfortunately, I experienced the Proline variable fit issue. Prolines were historically my most used AC blade type. Shortly before my Vector purchase, I had ordered a new pack of Prolines from one of the online shaving stores. I attempted to install one and it wouldn't seat all the way on the Vector plate, binding on the outer posts. If I tried to force it, the blade would begin to bulge up. Not realizing this was a known issue, I had reached out to Shane. He noted the fit issue, and I ultimately moved on to Feather Pros and Kai Pinks. I happen to have a ~3 year old Proline from a try a blade order and it fits perfectly.
I regret not doing the same thing.I bought 200 or so Prolines from Japan a couple of years ago. So far, they've all fit my Vector.
