Injector & SE Party !!!

I also have an Ever Ready/ Gem Push Button. Note the ER HFT has a blank rounder on the Handle, whereas the Gem
has a G in the roundel, hence often called a G Bar.

 

Very nice shave with the General.

Beautiful Featherweight!! Welcome to the next level of shaves. Your DE stuff is about to get lonely.

Those are good blades. But you need to hook up some PAL blades..wooo

Good man. Carry on!!


So today had round 2 with the Hussy. It did not feel so special. When I finished though I had a surprise solid shave. Wooooooo. A few more shaves and I shoukd have her all figured out.

Schick I1 & Schick Twin [ 4 - Japan ]
The use of a Twin Blade makes a huge difference to this Razor. An excellent smooth and very close all round shave today, gives the AC powered ones a run for their money. Yes I know, the cost of the blades is high but I save on the cost of other items [ do no use EDT, and have inexpensive brushes ].

Featherweight today with really smooth results. Nice shave. I enjoy using the GEM razors from time to time for some variety. The Stirling lather was outstanding and I really like the Stirling splashes as far as skincare and scent. Really nice all around.

Have a great day!

Fantastic shave this morning. I really enjoy the scent of the Petrichor, it reminds me of quality time in the garden as a kid with my parents and grandparents. It smells exactly like wet dirt but there's a nice spicy background that peaks through every so often. Once the AS dries down that spicy scent becomes more pronounced, I can't place it but really enjoy it. Another full pass shave with the Chimera this morning. I love this razor, it is wicked sharp and easily maneuverable plus the western grind makes it easy to find the edge. One pass with the Supply and one with the Chimera and I ended up with a DFS. Have a great day folks!

I love those navy injector handles with the silver tops.

 

I know what you mean, they do look good.

 

Tuesday was another great OCMM and PAL shave.

 

Sounds like a plan....I think I'll join you....I've gotten reacquainted with mine lately...and we've been getting along famously....and you know....The PAL blades with the OCMM really is a bond made in Heaven...They both bring out the best in each other.... Dang near perfect!

 

Dang near.....today is Williams Wednesday. Vintage williams and the 1915 on deck.

Schick G1 today. This razor started my injector and SE conversion and I always enjoy returning to it. It's like coming home. So smooth and efficient. Really effortless and enjoyable. Amazing lather from Stirling Dunshire helped out overall. This was a nice shave.

Have a great day!
