Lately I have decided that deserve to have a good enjoyable shave and the 1/2 dozen bladed monsters I've been using lately are not getting it. So I recently purchased a Parker 66R and started relearning my skills. I'm not 100% happy with the 66R but I'll probably persevere until I regain some skills. As a young man I started out on one my dads old Gillette DE razors. Later I switched to a Schick injector and then, sadly to those hollow handled Bics and knock offs. Never bought into the double blade mythology but back then the Bics were cheaper than injectors for a broke 20 year old. Returning to the old school.

Welcome from the Jersey Shore. Make sure and stop by the Injector and SE thread; Injector shaving is still a thing with new blades and razors available.
