    It’s quite easy. But pm your address. I’ll send you out a couple of blades I modified to use.

    @gorgo2 posted a thread on here a few years back on how to modify the blade. It seemed fairly easy to do. Read up on the history of the Segal razor. Interesting stuff!

    gorgo2 geezerhood

    All I did was, use a small pair of metal snips (or maybe small scissors, can't recall) to carefully cut that oval baseplate shape out of a new stainless blade. It worked fine. The Segal's cap, as you know, clamps down very tightly so it will hold the modified blade in place evenly even if that football isn't cut out quite perfectly.

    Was the shave worth going through that trouble on multiple stainless blades? Not for me, so I parted with it. But it was a fun experiment.

    It occurred to me later (but I don't recall trying it) that DE blades split in half might also work once the center is cut right, which would be easier to do with a halved blade. The cap should clamp down on half-blades tightly enough to hold them too, I'm pretty sure.

    This may be the longest raffle we've had.

    In an effort to speed this up, I'll ask folks with active tickets to look over the remaining prizes. If you are not interested in any of them, please let me know I can skip your ticket(s). You can just post "not in".
