Hi. I recently bought 2 shavettes on eBay & now I can't find blades to fit. Attachment 129094 The blade holder/inserts have holes that look like a dovo long blade will fit but the holes don't line up. Neither the personna blades nor regular DE blades fit either. I asked the seller for advice but was told the shavettes are 'rare' & will be hard to find blades for (thanks buddy). If anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate it. Thanks guys :)
Is there a manufacturers name on the shavette?
Atlanta Barbers Supply has a number of brands. Hope this helps.
Very Best, John
On the handle there's three stars & some characters that aren't written in English. Nothing I can read or refer to.
Ill try Atlanta barber supply. Thanks.
Those look like the inserts that the Dovo Shavette uses. I know they make different inserts for different blades so maybe one of their other inserts might work.
Yea; that's exactly what I thought. Unfortunately this one has 3 evenly spaced holes whereas the dovo ones aren't evenly spaced. And the shavettes are narrower so I can't even put a dovo insert in. Woe is me :(
I just bought another shavette on eBay exactly like the 2 I already have simply because it comes with a box of blades. Once I have the box, hopefully I can track down more blades :)
(Now, hopefully, they actually provide a decent shave)
If your still interested in a shavette , try DX.com. The solid stainless and Derby professional 1/2 blades. Very reasonable and a great shavette combo.

Try a Sally's beauty supply. They carry a good variety. also the large blade you show can be snapped in half to fit some shavettes. Good luck. Also look on imagesupplyhouse.net, they also carry a good variety.
I do not think the insert you have is a DOVO Shavette Insert.
Compare it with these:-

The ends of your insert appears round rather than angled!
I use and recommend the green insert with Personna blades.
Hope this helps,

Thanks. I do use the green insert in my dovo with persona blades. Im hoping that the blades I get with this eBay order will have a name or something I can use to purchase more.
I will try Sally's & the other place suggested. Thanks again :)
