Razor

[Miyagisan]

Hello everyone



I’m currently taking a break from safety razors as I’m exploring my options. Now with that being said, someone please tell me what kind of razor this is? My father used to shave with it. I would like to start using it

I have coarse hair, so what twin blades would you recommend?

Thanks

A welcome to B&B from me. Sorry no recommendations(sp?) from me i have no clue what your father's razor is.
But i know nearly every manual razor and blade will give weepers so your personal way to cut off the blood flow is your choice but i reccomend(sp?) cold water shave or alum to use once you get proper answers to your questions.

I told him it’s an Atra but he’s never acknowledged it.

Can I use any twin blade for the Atra razor?

No. You need Atra cartridges. Make sure the release button on the handle works before you bother getting them.

I still have two that I use regularly, the Atra is a a great razor.

The release button works perfectly, Atra blades are hard to find though

Pretty sure you can get them on the Big River. Also check BullGoose... I buy my Trac II cartridges from Phil.
