    That is a stunning F Type, simply stunning.

    That is a beauty Gary....I want it...!....I just noticed....I'd love a pic of where the key goes from the Injector....I just realized, but I've never seen how that looks on these...;)
    And we need an in depth shave review...and where does this bomb-shell fall in the agression spectrum of Schick types?
    Oh yeah...and how did no.1 and the Champ treat this lady when she made the scene by the sink...?

    That is a fine F Type to add to your collection Gary. Probably one of my most sought after pieces, but sadly most that I run across are fairly banged up in appearance.

    Well, it will unfortunately be a while before I can get around to this lovely. I have too many test requests right now so she will wait. #1 simply gave the look and thought, "that is just great another one of the Colonel's offspring to deal with."

    ;)......I can see that.....

    You might need to take some kind of beard growth hormone so you can shave more times a day, so you can get caught up on your testing....:happy102:

    I don't my face can handle any extra shaves or lathers. My face sometimes causes my tongue to stick out to razz me in the mirror while I look at another shaving item! :p

    I have never seen a photo of the F injector. What an interesting curve and look to the handle.

    Aren't they beautiful? When I had the Cobra a friend had recommended that I look into getting an F type to try out. I keep looking, but only see a lot of banged up ones that are overpriced.

    Can someone positively ID this Schick for me? I assume it's a G. It's now my fav injector because it can be opened and loaded with loose blades (and I got a lot of loose blades that won't go back in a mag). Thanks...

    BTW, that blade is the only Schick double edge injector blade I've come by and it is THE BEST INJ. BLADE I have ever had the pleasure to use.

    I can't tell from the pics....1. if there is a seam running the length of the handle or not...2. or how many patent no's. there are
    So without that information, I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that its an E-2.....
    What do you E2 owners have to say?

    1. No seams.

    2. "1806087, others pending."

    Schick E, you say? Cool.

    My first post here. I am tweaking one variable at a time only. I'm using a boar brush with Proraso, and a Gillette Fusion cartridge razor. I'm very interested in working back through the injectors (perhaps with a Trac 2 or Sensor stop off?), trying to find the perfect one for me. I've learned so much from this thread, I wanted to say thanks. I've got (I think) a butterscotch E2 to arrive on Monday, and am very excited.

    blanka I will not eat my shaving products. Promise.

    I finally got around to trying out the bakelite schick this morning for the first time. I definitely like the way an injector feels in the hand. I'm not sure I got a very good shave, but I'll give it another go tomorrow.

    Welcome! If it is an E2, trust me, go easy on it...no pressure or you'll bleed. ;)

    I've found it a bit more involved to find the "just right" injector shave (razor/blade combo) as opposed to DE but once you do, it'll equal the results of any other razor. I've been off of injectors for over a year so I'm just now getting my learning curve back in shape.

    Here is another acquisition that I made.
    It is a Schick L5 better known as the "Paul Revere."

    It is a really good razor. Excellent balance.
