Magnetic Blade Carrier for Enders Razors

 I had made some blade carriers for my Enders shavers  so I could use injector blades in them. The Enders Speed Razors/Shavers were well made and designed razors. Unfortunately, no one makes blades for them anymore. Then I was introduced to someone who had made a magnetic blade holder that worked as well or better than my carriers. However, I cannot recall who made this nifty blade carrier.



My design used old Enders blades where the bevel was ground off and where I used JB Weld to make spots that would line up with the blade holes. It worked for a while, but eventually one of the wings on the blade holder would fail. 

Here is a better design that took more know-how and tools than I have. 

Black Label Blade held with magnets

Front with Black Label Blade

Back view with Black Label Blade

Back of carrier with blade

Front view with blade

Back view with blade


Like I said, I don't remember who made this carrier. It was a bit pricy, but now I can use any of my Enders razors with confidence and the blade of my choosing.
