This razor advertises it has 3 blades but inside there are only 2. Top shows 3 but it appears that only 2 are powered. How can the middle one work?

It doesn't as a matter of fact if I were you I would purchase something else. This one looks nice but is terrible quality. The one I bought for my son broke after 30 days. 3rd blade is the trimmer.

There are 3 blades. The one in the center is built into the foil holder. It's driven/powered by a post coming up from the razor body. The other two blades have a more conventional design whereby the blades are attached to the razor body. Technically, there's a fourth blade - the sideburns trimmer.

You can check your model and accessory part numbers at www.smallappliance.com. One thing I discovered just now is that, while I can get a variety of newer blades for my older model DLC-5, the stems on the blades now detach. So, I would be looking at the price of the stem AND the blade just to get a different blade. So, I compared getting a newer model to see if more blades come with new models. Nope. Still only comes with three blades. They're gonna getcha coming and going, I guess.

I have owned several Phillips razors for many years, I am 82 years young. They are very reliable razors and each one of them lasted a long time. I let the razors battery run completely down before recharging, this seems to make them last longer. I only have two concerns, one is that if the razor does eventually go dead it does not have a replaceable battery. You have to buy a new razor. The other is that to replace the cutters on the new model razor, that I purchased, you cannot buy individual cutters as was the case with earlier models, you have to buy the complete head assembly. I hunted all over my city for a replacement head and finally had to get one from the internet. They are costly. I have owned several Phillips razors for many years, I am 82 years young.

It comes with 2 blades. Not sure what each is for, but one has small teeth and the other has larger teeth.

My razor is very old, but is a Trac II Plus. I'm thinking your razor is just a Trac II? This is going back many years, but I am pretty sure the 'Plus' was just the addition of the soapy strip on the cartridge. As I recall the Trace II was 2 blades without the strip. I am almost positive the Trac II and Trac II Plus razors were identical in how they attached. Also, it's Amazon, so if they don't fit you may simply return them.

It has 2 blades and they have to be put together and put into the handle correctly or it will build up like your saying. It took me a while to figure it out and once you get it locked in there correctly, it works beautifully.

There are 2 blades in the pack. In my opinion these are not finish quality blades I returned them and ordered one good Freud blade

There are two blades attached to the shaver itself, spaced far apart and are the blades that are present on the two outermost foils. The other two blades exist, but are built into the foils- one is the slit-foil blade which is designed for longer hairs, and the other is a normal foil blade. This works by hooking into the base of the two blades, where there are little plastic connectors, making them move at 14,000 rpm's. So, just to be clear, there are four blades.

There are two cutting heads. This razor is good but it works about the same as the 7526 model. It does not work very good on the neck. I have used Braun for 25 years.

You will need to have Double Edged blades with you, popular brands include Feather, Astra, Personna, Derby, Gillette 7'o'clock, etc. Actually changing the blades on the razor is very easy. This is a 3 piece razor - which means you can disassemble the razor into 3 pieces. The 3 pieces are the handle, the base plate with the safety bar, and the final top post. To install the blade please see the attached link for an image that makes it easier to understand.http://www.shaverhut.com.au/muhle-r41-safety-razor-tooth-comb-chrome.htmlHope this helps.

I, too, have had a lot of trouble finding them. Last time I found them, it was in Walmart. The problem is that the replacement blades are as expensive as the whole new razor. I now just buy the whole new razor and throw the old one away, or keep it for parts.

Just 3 blades. I was surprised. The sharpener is a better deal because it has two blades.

In my vibrating Quattro razor, I get about 12 shaves per blade...maybe more. They're expensive but really last. Also, less cuts and nicks. I love the vibrating razor.

I think there is only one size of safety razor blades. Double check to make sure they are inserted correctly is about all I can think of. I think the blades are held by the corners. I got a 100 pack of Astra Platinum razor blades, and they seem to work fine for me. I also have an even cheaper safety razor I got from China. It took a while to come in, but I was in no hurry. They both seem to work fine for me, and I use both. I actually use several razors every day. It's my feeling that different razors shave differently, hopefully each getting some hairs the others don't. Hope this helps. Best of luck I think there is only one size of safety razor blades.

I have already written to you about my disappointment in this razor and asked if it is possible to get 1 of the blade devices insde, the first time I used this and used the brush to gently clean the blades one fell in the trash, I didn't hear it and now the razor is useless.
