I am a bit confused. Does this handle hold pivot type razors? Does it have the 2 hooks that hold onto the blade that allow a pivot?

It uses Pivot type razor blades (when attached they are made to pivot) Not sure about 2 hooks but I believe so.

Hello, the head does pivot and it does have the two hooks on each side to grab the atra style razors.Problem, the all metal handle and all metal head is connected by a plastic connector that you can not see. The head broke off from the handle. I now went back to a double edge razor "Merkur" I save allot of money and get a great shave "old school" Good luck!

Yes, this razor handle holds Gillette Atra type blades and has two metal hooks that allow the blade to pivot. The photo on Amazon doesn't show it but there is a black plastic button on the not shown side of the handle which releases the blade. I found the hooks on my handle didn't release cleanly but they were eaisily aligned with needle nose pliers and work fine now. I dropped it once which might have been part of the problem.

Yes, the hooks clip on a two-blade razor that allows it to pivot. I use a two-blade razor for a week before changing.

Yes, the ATRA blade pivots on two hooks that expand when you press the button.

Yes, it had two hooks to hold the razor which allow the razor to pivot. We use the Atra blades.

Yes it does have hooks. It fits Gillette razors.It allows the blade to pivot.

No, it is designed to hold the safety razor only (and snugly, I might add.)

I'm not sure witch handle you are talking about. but this razor has a very nice handle on it.

Don't know about the razor handle but it should hold just about any normal size brush. The brush sits at the junction of the handle and the bristles. Its a really nice stand. It fits the Merker 34c which has a thick handle with some room to spare.

I don't believe it does because Wahl Razors have more than one model and the sizes are very different, so i doubt very much that this 2 Hole Balding Clipper Blade will fit all Wahl Razors. Some do not attach with two screws as this one does.Hope this helps.

Not unless the handle neck is narrower at some point like under the razor head. I measured the gaps in my stand and the smaller gap intended to hold the razor is only 1/2 (8/16ths) inch wide and the larger gap intended to hold the shaving brush is 1 inch wide. When I looked at the picture of the 43C razor, it looks like the neck is smaller than 11/16" so I would think this stand would allow the razor to be hung from the neck. Try measuring the smallest width of the neck of your razor - I doubt it's bigger than 1/2".

Not sure which razor you're referring to but I use Gillette Fusion (5 blades) and it fits just fine.

I should be a smart alec, smile, and say "Yes." Because they do both. I have a Trac II type handle and a cheap Atra knockoff I got elsewhere. Trac IIs slide, the Atra uses a push button to move prongs that click onto pivot holes in ribs on the back of the blade's plastic "frame." These blades are set up to use either and seem to work fine on either.

I have a Parker razor with a long handle and it rests on the stand just fine. I believe just about any safety razor would fit. This being said, I have not actually tried a Merkur Futur on this stand before.

I believe the handle on the 8893/8805 model pivots which makes using the handle extension easier. I love the 8893 !!

Yes, the handle is 3". The razor's overall length is 3 and 1/4 inches. It is compact and heavy. If you want a razor that you can wrap all of your fingers around to get an easy solid grip, this isn't it. You can expect to only fit a thumb and two fingers on it when shaving.

That's a good question. Perhaps they are hoping no one reads that far. Mine has a plastic handle; however, I do have a handle from a broken razor that may fit, so maybe I can salvage something out of it. Should have known to be more careful when looking at an 87-cent razor.

No, this is a 3-piece razor. The handle unscrews from the head, which then separates into the two pieces that secure the blade. It's a very secure design for holding the blade firmly, and only takes a few seconds to change.

I don't know why that picture shows a handle- the one I purchased was the two-button model. I believe that is what you'll get.

I have a Gillette Atra razor. This razor has a push button opposite the blade that expands 2 pins outward to eject used blade. These pins stay expanded until you push new blade into them. Pins also act as a pivot point for the blade. There are 2 holes in the plastic part of the blade.

Yes, from what I have seen, the Sensor, Sensor Excel and Sensor 3 blades all fit on the same handles. I have been using a Sensor razor for over 20 years and found the Sensor Excel to be about the best blade Gillette ever made. I'll use them as long as they are available and I'm currently using a Sensor 3 handle that I recently purchased to replace my worn out Excel handle. The Sensor 3 blade is overkill (literally for my skin) and the two bladed version of the razor works just fine.

The handle on the razor I received in this set measures 3.75". I have really large hands, but with a double edge razor you really should let the weight of the razor do the work by holding it with the fingertips, not palming the handle.
