Please tell me if the numbers on your blades have any significance? 1&2 on one side and 3&4 on the opposite side.

No. I believe that is done for gentlemen for gentlemen to know how to gauge dullness.i use one side for one week then the other side for the next. By week three it's time for a new blade.

Popular question. The answer is no. This is strictly for their purposes. That said, some people do flip the blades once in an effort to make them last longer, but at 10¢ a pop, it's not a big deal.

According to a Derby Factory spokesperson, the numbers are there for internal quality control during the manufacturing process.

Dear MichelSorry, but I cant answer it, because it has to do with the position of this unit between your Machine and the blade.

All I can say is that the blades should move end to end not back and forth/side to side. I have not had this problem/issue so I cannot say for sure what to or not to do. Good luck.

mine has 4.I think 4 is the right number.3 would crete an imbalance when picking it up by the handle.

I checked attachments and see 'Tri-blade' label on one. Both metal-bladed attachments have three blades, and the non-metal one has two paddle-like blades.

I was going to attach an image file of all the blades and dies but there seems to be no way to do that. The text answer is: No, none of the blades are duplicates. Enjoy your tool. Richard

There are 4 blades , 2 facing upwards , 2 facing outwards. Each blade is 1" long , 1/2" wide at the widest part of these blades.☺

Have you possibly installed one of the blades upside down? Other than this, I cannot think of any other possibility.

The side pictured has "Ka-bar" and "Olean, NY." stamped on it, but the opposing side has "U.S.A." with "1211" stamped underneath it. I just uploaded some pictures so you can get a better look. They are the ones with a wood grain table in the background. Remember that this 1095 carbon will rust, as it is not a stainless steel. Mine rusted within a few hours of sharpening. In the picture, you will see that I have it oiled pretty good.

If both blades swing to the left you will want to buy A for both sides. If your right blade swings right get B for the right side and A for the left.

You may need to check surface of blades! Also age of blades, if Old ; change them.

Some brands of razor blades stamp the blades so that if there is a quality control concern during the manufacturing process there is a way to identify the sides of the blade. Usually the blade has "1 2" on one side and "3 4" on the other. People frequently ask if the numbers are to designate a side that is better for shaving, but both sides are the same in that regard. Some men use the numbers for keeping track of the edge that they most recently used during their shave. The argument is that flipping the blade in the razor between shaves allows the edge to be worn down more evenly. However, most people just ignore the numbers and enjoy their shaves as usual.

They have 2 blades. I have 3 of them. 2 blades are best.. 3 tend to get bogged down. I have never seen just 1 blade.

There is a bolt on each side. The blades have three position holes. Loosen the bolt and move to a different hole.
