Excellent! This is such a great way of shaving it deserves to be publicised.Gents I thought of making a video on the Super 77 Blades with a compatible shavette. If you like to check that, visit Youtube-> "Joy Shaving" channel. I am going to put more such videos.
Keep up the good shaves
Thank you!That's a looker! Congrats, Marcus, on another great find and ingenious workaround!
Good video! It’s inspired me to try out this razor.Yes My friend , I have shaved with it and its good in a way. Coincidentally I have made a video on the same and you can check that out on Youtube - > Joy shaving. The title of the video is "Cloud Hair Shaper Shavette | Cloud Blades | Shave and Review"
Best Regards,

***Keep up the good shaves***
I guess how these blades perform has a lot to do with individual skin chemistry and water hardness etc.Yes, I have this one (or very similar) that I bought on ebay.
I liked it with the included Cloud blades that were quite nice for me. When these were used up I purchased some "Feather Cut" blades (also on ebay) but unfortunately these blades are nowhere near as sharp as the Cloud ones the holder came with.
So I have not used it a lot since...

I just used a Feather Cut blade and found it to be excellent so very much YMMV...
... seems like it’s a similar case with the Chinese Cabinet blades - there are widely differing reports about the Antelope 77 blades.
They’re all so cheap and easily available that it’s definitely worth experimenting to find which ones suit you.
Great stuff! I totally agree Chinese shavettes are FUN FUN FUN!!These chinese shavettes really are fun - for a lot less bucks than a few replacement carts for a fusion...

Good video! It’s inspired me to try out this razor.
In it I notice you don’t do much skin stretching but you do puff up your cheeks to get the same effect.
I might try this.
Here are some AliExpress links in case someone is interested.
Antelope blades: store1 store2
Cloud blades: uncoated platinum
Jishi blades: full size half size
Slicke: half size
It's going to take a while to try these out and compare sharpness, longevity, etc.
Oh, and here are some links to shavettes that take those blades:
style1 style2 style3
Google translate reveals quite a intresting name of these good bladesWhat? Is this a Vanta that takes these long Chinese blades?
Where did you get that from?
This thread is getting deeper and deeper
In other news my 100 Jishis arrived so I suppose that's about 4 years shaving right there!

I watched some of your shaving videos, and enjoyed it. Keep up the good work!Thanks for Checking out the video!, I would suggest using the skin stretching method, it helps quite a lot. Puffing my cheeks does the kind of same effect. In case if a blade feels a bit rough, I highly recommend using a preshave oil, it really helps.
