Does anyone know where to get blades for these or am I out of luck.Attachment 214557Attachment 214558
Also what are they and how are they used
A picture of the blade itself would help. Have you tried Sally's Beauty Supply?
Fendrihan and Italian Barber, they are longer than the typical single edge blade. They are made by Personna so in theory they should be fairly easy to find. I think Fromm and Dorko also make them.
That's seems to be a hair trimming razor set up. Tc
Not sure what size the blades are but in general Ted Pella sells a lot of different kinds of single edge blades
Blades
If you could remove the blade and show us a picture, and the measurements of the blade, we could help more. I think tc has hit it. I remember my barber giving me a Perry Como style haircut with one of those. Made my wavy hair look straight and trim...for 2 weeks...for $2.

I bet you get an answer tonight!
I'm not to worried about it. They where given to me and I'm still not even sure what they are
I say they are shaving razors with guards. Either way, used to trim also, most likely! Feather may make something.

I just saw the blades you asked about yesterday at Sally's Beauty Supply. They had Fromm's and something else I don't remember, Dorko I think? I also think I saw those handles that you posted there too. Bring them in and I believe they will tell you they are for cutting and maybe thinning hair?

2 1/4" is a standard hair shaping blade... I seem to remember the brand name Fromm from my dads barbershop, but that is an awful long time ago.
And no, these are not meant for shaving, they are hair shaping razors. As a young lad, I recall my dad using a straight razor to cut my hair. He said he prefered it over scissors as it gave a smoother cut, and personally, I liked the slight tug. The warm ice cream out of the dispenser, not so much.
Anywho, a beauty supply shop like Sally's should have them in stock.

A guy sold them to me for a $1 saying they were straight razors with a gard so you don't nick your neck. My mom told me it was for shaving and leaving a little scruff leftover (which made no sense to me). I figured that for a $1 I couldn't go wrong. To be honest I really was going to try to shave with them just to see what it did.
I have a Henckels regular straight with a guard. It was an early predecessor of safety razors. I also have a Weck Sextoblade that take stye same size of blades and it is intended as a shaving razor. It is not a stretch for me that those are shaving razors with guards.
