Feather/CJB

Just received a CJB from a member, and had my first shave with it. Got as close to a BBS as I have ever had with a straight. See the post today for exceptions on my neck, although this was as good as I have ever gotten around the old apple. Now,. will Feather blades fit in a DJB, or do I need to use Korean blades? If Feathers do fit, is there one of the sizes that is correct? How many shaves can I expect to get out of one blade? Thanks for any help you can provide.
PS I guess this means I need to work a little harder on my honing!

All Feather AC and Kai blades will fit. Depending on which ones you get the blade exposure will differ a little.
 
They all fit the CJB (have a couple or three of them). I did a run of 19 with a Guard blade once - towards about 10 it was acting like a mild straight and it lasted quite a while. I think you should expect at least six or seven shaves with no problem at all.
