    What kind of blades does a Shake Sharp razor use? Regular SE blades? Or a proprietary blade?
    Thanks.

    It depends on the maker. There are 2 different companies. One uses a standard DE. Very nice razor.

    The second takes proprietary blades and it has 2 distinct blades. They need custom holders or extensive mods to work.

    Picture would help on what one you are referring to.

    The Shaky makes having some good old carbon blades worth it. Never did see how many months I could get when I had one.

    I don't have one to take pics of. I saw one for sale and was considering but realized I didn't know anything about Shake Sharp other than they are good razors. I grabbed these pics off the site where this is being sold. Hope this helps you tell me which version this is?????

    That is the model that takes DE blades. Nice shaves. Dig around the forum. @jmudrick has posted extensively on this. I have one from this maker but it has a plastic handle.
