Injector & SE Party !!!

The loose grip is an easy fix. Just place the top of the head flat against a hard surface and push down. The spring will bend to be tighter and the grip will be good.

 

Yep. Tomorrow is another day.

 

I got my Schicks (Types L, M, and N) in the mail today!

 

You got a Schick N1! Drop a twin in that and go to town! ......

 

I have some regular Schick blades in the mail. Hopefully they will arrive tomorrow. While I'd love to buy the twin blades, they are crazy expensive.

 

Yeah they are and worth every penny. Folks who don't spring for them will never know what some of these injectors are truly capable of. This goes double for that N1.

 

I feel the same way. I bought one pack to treat myself, and put them into my L and M. I figure if I just use them in a rotation, that pack should last me a couple of years. Maybe by then I will decide to spring for another one.

Excellent shave with the PAL Injecto-Matic this morning. Wonderful lather from La Toja shave stick. Three refreshing passes for a dolphin smooth finish. Enjoy your day friends.

 

Nice setup and picture Roby. Off to the gym are we ?
Have a good Friday.

 

Thank you Doug, I sure am buddy. Enjoy your day.

 

Och Aye..The Noo..:rah:

SOTD December 9, 2016

Blade: Chinese Schick
Razor: Schick G1 injector
Brush: Omega 10049 boar
Lather: Mitchell's Wool Fat
Post: Witch hazel splash, Fine American Blend aftershave, Nivea sensitive balm
WTG, touch-up

Back to the G1 after over a week with the I1. The G was mighty comfortable. It's always smooth and efficient. I think it's still a little ahead of the I1 as far as personal favorability, but they're both terrific razors. Nice, simple, efficient shave with Mitchell's Wool Fat today. The Fat is always a treat to use.

Have a great day!

 

Great picture, Roby! I love La Toja! You've inspired me to get my Stick out this weekend.

 

Thank you Jim. La Toja is dreamy!

 

Roby inspired me to try it too. It IS great stuff, except my son took it.

 

Order another Jared, it's so worth it!

 

Chaos reigned this morning. First having tightened up the head a little on the C1 started out with that and it wasn't good. Very rough and inefficient, I'm thinking/hoping blade edge was damaged (the loading mechanism seems stuck so I'm hand loading.). Out. A pass each using my new Single Ring and Goodwill matched with a couple of pristine looking vintage blades I tried to touch up before use. Not full Billyfergie but in that spirit. The 1949 Blue wasn't bad. Pretty good actually. The 1918 Gillette blade was usable but rough. Coming to my senses (temporarily no doubt) I finished the beard with the '66 Krona/Permasharp, did a pass on the noggin with the same before a cue ball finish with the Injectomatic. What a mess. I'm blaming Supply Provision

 

Some awesome toys to play with, tho. Your Supply arriving tomorrow? My says hopefully so, but tracking hasn't updated since it left Texas.

 

Schick Injector Type N
Schick blade
Maggards 22mm black synthetic brush
Tabac soap
Skin Bracer aftershave

I've never used an injector before, but this was a great shave. Two passes and no nicks or irritation. I'm pretty impressed with this razor.
