    I have a micromatic that i want to use where is there a online source for them? The walgreens by my house wants almost $6.00 for the Personna GEM hoping to find some for cheaper

    razorandbrush.com sells blades, but unfortunately they are currently closed. Pella also sells blades but they are only in packs of 200.

    If you have a Walmart you can try there. Some Walmarts have a 10 pack of GEM Blue Star blades for about $4. Others don't have any SE blades at all. CVS usually has GEM blades as well. But as I recall they are a bit pricier. However, the CVS blades are stainless and the Walmart blades are Carbon steel and will rust fast.

    When you go into local stores, be careful that you aren't buying paint chipper/floor scraper blades. They look the same but have a different edge for a very different purpose.

    Lucky you!! Dang now I'm sad that there is a wal mart a mere 65 miles away from me, I thought I was isolated.

    Rite Aid did have the treets so I picked up a pack and gave the micro a test drive with the way some people talked i thought i was going to resemble Freddie Kruger. But after the shave i look more like baby new years face. Not quite a BBS but real close, though a do have some razor burn. The Micromatic is a lot more "aggressive" then the Gillette New all in all I like the shave this things gives and with practice it will get easier. I am a Gem fan

    Hey that sounds good.. There are a lot better shaving SE's then the micromatic... But It can give very very nice shaves also...Now get a 1912 and see what it can do.:D
