My fusion razor is too big to use it the way it is in the picture. Can I reverse the razor and still get a sharpened blade

I popped off the top piece of the plastic cover. The two pieces are just snapped together, and you do not really need the top one at all. Works like a charm.

Don't know if you saw my review or not. I use a Fusion also. It doesn't fit well, but it can fit. You just need to angle it a bit more - until the handle is almost parallel to the unit. This is not the recommended angle but I find that it still works - it restores my blade just fine.

Yes you can. Start from the back and draw the blade towards you, there is plenty of room. It's fantastic.

This razor is not adjustable. Perhaps try some different DE razor blades. Maybe you need a sharper blade. This razor works just fine for me.

Sorry so late, but its not a dumb question. I brought a sharper from walmart (Revlon) and it has the small and large sharper connected together. You can also try you neighborhood drug stores for the large sharper. I hope this helps.

The blade is relatively sharpened on the main and the drop of the blade. You will probably have to touch both up a bit if you want a razor edge .

No, the shape of the blade is wrong. You need a rod-shaped sharpener or a steel.

Sorry I don't know haven't had to get razors yet. But I would think that you could go to your local store and use it there.

i have not used the mach gillette razor as sad as that sounds i do know however that the older fusion proglide razors are interchangable with this model so if you can fit a mach on a fusion i do not see why not

Yes. The single blade is on the cartridge, not on the razor itself, and all Fusion cartridges have this.

Yes you can. Traditionally only the last 1/2 to last 1/4 of the blade was sharpened. A caveat exists. Generally blades from China are poor at holding a good edge, and are very brittle (i.e. the blade is more decoration than functional), so do some research on the steel used in making the blade.

Short answer is No. Long answer is yes, but you'd have to somehow remove the flexing joint from the base of the Fusion blade heads. You'd have to not break the joint connector while doing so, because that's how blades attach to the HeadBlade, and that seems hard to do, and you may also cut your fingers trying. HeadBlade sells 5-blade heads. I like them better than the default 2 blade heads.

I have a Merkur, and the blades fit well. Maybe you are not tilting the razor enough. Maybe you put the bottom piece of the razor on upside down. But it's not the blades. These are the same size as any razor blade. Good luck.

My husband says....the sharpener will produce a sharp enough enough edge to shave hair from your arm. However if you over sharpen your knife the edge will not last as long...but if you watch the video (included) they explain using the 30 back edge and that will help strengthen the edge. You can get a sharper edge by stropping...however I recommend the ultra find grit stones...purchased separately, for razor sharp edge.

I assume you mean the sides of the head? If so then yes, pretty much all blades will extend this far as they are a universal type, made to fit all types of razors. The good news is this part is not sharp. A good safety trick to help change the blade is to cover the head with a clean washcloth and hold it that way, giving you a better grip, preventing accudental cuts, and protecting your razor from drops (it WILL break if yoy drop it). Hope this helps.

I wouldn't waste my time on trying to sharpen it. Buy a new one. You won't believe the difference in using a new one compared to the old one.

No, I have both razors and it is a totally different mechanism on each one and they are not interchangeable.Sorry,

No. Not unless they've come out with a new adapter recently. Their old adapters only worked on Atra blades. That being said, their HeadBlade 3 & 4 blade heads are comparable to the Fusion in price.

It will. It is the most forgiving razor I have ever used. You want the sharpness of a Feather. It was designed around that ! No matter what you use it will work but the sharper the better !! It's a great machine !
