And spot to reload blades
I just cleaned one up like this.
Ordered some Schick injectors, not sure if they will fit, but I'll give it a shot.
Gotta keep my eyes open for one of those. Schick is one of my favorite alternates to a straight razor shave.
There is one of these at a local antique shop that I almost got. I might have to go back and pick it up and try it out now that I know you can get blades for it still.
Heres a persona injector blade for reference

The blades fit but you have to load the magazine by hand.
Heck I never noticed that in the folded position the razor inserts the blades into the razor lol
Yes that's how it works. There is a magazine in the bottom of the handle that holds quite a few blades. You pull out the injector at the bottom and it strips the next blade out of the magazine and pushes it into the head, forcing the old blade out.
Your #3 picture is the injector plunger. The #4 shows to access/remove the magazine.
There are a few on the Bay.
Here is a good article about them:
Schick Injector Razors
The top on mine is a bit dented, but everything else is in great shape. If anyone comes across a decent top piece let me know.
That's pretty cool. Ive never seen one of those. Why did you have to say there were some on eBay?
I didn't have to. But thought someone stated they would like to find one.
Was that wrong of me to help someone?
Sorry about your RAD...
There are 2 that are fairly low starting bids, but I don't have any idea how fast they might go up. I don't even remember where I got mine a few years back. I only recently dragged it out of its hiding place among my straights.
The ones with good cosmetics (show little to no wear on the plating) don't go cheap. There was a type 'B' up a few weeks back. I considered it but really wanted one with a cap for travel. The one I got looks great but I found after receiving it that there was a missing part in the pivot and the head was wobbly. I made a couple bevel washers that fit in the recess and they took up all the slack. Still awaiting the arrival of new blades.

Mine is exactly this type.
I've a couple of those old Schick repeaters, an A, Two B types, and a C like the OP. They are way cool, and due to the heft will shave pretty well with modern blades. Newer blades can be cycled through the magazine if the internal parts are there and working. The last is the problem with EBay sales, rarely are there pictures to show that they function. That said, you can load them manually if the OEM guts are missing or seized up.
Lost out on one this morning at the last second. It is just as well because it went to high for me at the moment. You have a very cool razor and I hope you enjoy using it.
I saw those first but happened upon one that started off around $16 that I assume is one of the ones mentioned. I bid up to about $30 and in the last three seconds they more than doubled my bid.
