Not to hijack the thread but are tracII and Atra blades interchangeable? Can either blade be used with either handle?

No. Only blades like the personna twins which are specifically designed to be compatible with both can be used with both. I think there may be adapter plates available as well, but I haven't used them. The native Trac II uses a twin rail system, the atra used a click in system.
 
The Vector works with Atra blades but I can't say I'd recommend it. I snagged one last year and it has the weight and build quality of a disposable razor.
 
There are many good NOS twin razors (and carts) available on eBay instead of modern light weight versions...
 
The plastic for the Trac II slides blocks the pivot when the dual compatible carts are used on an Atra, so they don't have the same pivot range as dedicated carts.
