Where to find Feather SE blades (hopefully in Europe)?

Recently I purchased a Valet razor on ebay (actually 2) unfortunately the models that require specific VALET blades.

I am aware that feather is producing blades that can be used with VALET razors. The only place where I found them is razorbladesandmore.com but shipping costs to Italy are insanely high

Do you know other Feather SE sellers?

Thanks,
Massimo

RB&M is the only place I'm aware of for these.

I found some here:

Thanks Nils, good point. Unfortunately, again insanely shipping costs... anyway in this case I should not have customs problems.

15 Euros is ridiculous indeed. I wasn't aware of the shipping costs, sorry.

But I'm sure we can work something out. Nassrasur.com has several items that interest me, so I could order some blades for you and ship them on to Italy in a simple letter(judging by your first name, I'm guessing it's Italy, forgive me if I'm wrong).

Massimo, can you post a photo of your particular Valet? I'm about to start experimenting with a couple. Incidentally, if you have the right model, then altering a SE blade is possible:

I've got that one as well as another for which that mod doesn't work. I also have some NOS Gillette manufactured blades for them. Word to the wise: DON'T! I promise you that Gillette put no lovin' into those blades! If I can get things together, I'll post what I learn.

Sorry for the delay but I was away for holydays (by the way also in Bavaria but only for few days...). Your offer is interesting if still valid!

It is a post 1920 model and therefore no adaptation is possible

I wouldn't bet on that yet. Does it have 3 raised indents in a straight line to hold the blade in place, like this one?

Sorry, best reference I could find at this exact moment.

I have to check more carefully indeed but probably not. Wrt the ebay one there is a moving blade holder. Tomorrow, I will post some images.

Yeah, darn it! You will need the feathers. I was hopeful you might have had the Model E. I've some experimentation to do on those. So sorry, I have no alternatives after all.
