Yes. The package states that they can be used "in all Fusion razors." Mine is also not the Proglide and the blades fit fine.

i don't believe you can, but i would check with gillette directly and describe the type of handle you have.......the fusion proglide is a unique razor and as a matter fact i just bought, thru amazon, the new roller ball fusion proglide..........i have collection gillette shavers that's how much i depend on any gillette to give me a close shave........... sorry that i cannot answer your question more positively, robert p. lacombe, a loyal gillette customer

I have Fusion Power handle and the regular Fusion cartridge works on it, so that means the reverse must be true, so the answer should be yes.

It seems to be designed to fit most standard razors such as the Mach 3 and similar razors. Some may not work if their handles are any thicker than a Mach 3 fusion. The main problem with this model is that the angle the razor sits at when in the handle makes it nearly impossible to shave correctly. I would recommend just taping a second razor to a dowel. It would be more effective and cost less. Just my suggestion.

Im pretty sure you can as I believe the blades are universal. Now if the balding blade is surgical, that'll make it even better. Ive used the blade that comes on the magic for balding and it did a very good job... and yes it is a surgical blade. Hope this helps.

It seems one cannot by anything related to this item, though I love it for ease of use, once you need new trimmer blades or anything else, you are out of luck! Sorry I bought it!

NO! The Mach 3 is flat bottomed at the insertion point; the Fusion and Fusion Pro-Glides have a concave shape at the insertion point (as in what the orange ball fits into). I called Gillette to confirm. Don't listen to anyone who tells you the Mach-3 blades will work on the new razors. They won't.

With the red blade holder you can use any standard double edge safety razor blade. Just be careful while braking the double edge blade in half.The black razor holder is for the dovo "long blades", I purchased these on amazon. When I purchased the dovo shevette, it came with the regular double edge safety razor blade as well as the long blades. I seem to prefer the long blades, the regular blade just takes more time to do a shave. FYI you can also buy the regular blades already broken in half, but then you are limited by the available brands.Hope this helps, oh one more thing when braking the razor blades in half, keeping the wrapper on makes things easier and safer.

I use Fusions also. This product works fine for Fusions. Just make sure you angle the razor sufficiently so that it makes good contact with the sharpening surface. That means inserting the razor until its almost parallel with the unit and raising the end as far as it will comfortably go. Then go. The grating resistance you feel is the blade being sharpened/restored. Remember to do this under running water. SPOILER ALERT: the sharpening surface in this unit is actually a strip of glass. You may choose to break the unit and remove the glass for easier access OR find any other strip of glass with the correct dimensions. Good luck.

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.

The blade designed for the Power model includes an additional "comb" at the leading edge, which lifts and arranges the whiskers before the blades slice through them. But any fusion blade can be used with any fusion handle, power or otherwise.

Additionally, you have to be careful. Sensor, Mach3 and fusion razors all have a different blade fitting so they are not interchangeable.

I used them on an ATRA handle, which they click on, so I can't really help if you're using them on another style handle. I reviewed these blades recently, and while I try not to be too negative, these blades rated a "one star" review from me.

There are a number of great handle options that can be used with this razor. Maggards, Weber, Apollo, Ikon... etc all make some very nice stainless handles from light, to long, to heavy that work well. I personally love the Maggard's MR5 handle with this head.

I love the wovel, it is an excellent tool...HOWEVER...I think the ice attachment is a bad idea. The way my wovel is put together (bent steel handles attached at the stem by bolts) caused me to break a handle at the bolts when using the ice tool attachments...unless they have changed the way the handle attaches, like I suggested in 2009, using the attachment will eventually break one or both handles.

The Fusion razor blades I use have a single blade on the back side. The sharpener seems to work on this side as well. As long as the the razor blades can make contact at an acute angle as shown, I believe the sharpener would work.

When I googled Ulu and looked at the various blades, I don't see why you can't use this product. Needless to say it may be a little awkward but I think you will have success. I am left-handed so most things feel awkward to me.

I use it also. If fact, all Blade products bind with it. There are great YouTube video that help you customize controllers.
