Daggone Fuzzy...That 1902 is loud enough...While I was watching this video....when you were shaving your goatee area my next door neighbor started knocking on the wall, yellin for me to hold it down! Tom's right as usual I think...those curved top 1912s are usually pretty mild...folks like the curved blade cover because it helps to "dial in" and fine tune your stroke...But I think the reason GEM went to a flat beveled edge, was because you just lay it down flat, and lower the handle a tad and it's so easy to find the sweet spot... Although....ONCE ! I had a curved top GEM 1912 that alway drew blood...It wasn't a Dammy, but looked like one with that curvd top, but it was a Brooklyn NY razor...And that rascal, always had a Frank Zappa "Weasels Rip My flesh" kind a thing happening Ain't it da truth.... Can't lose with either one of those.... Nevah met a Schick I didn't LOVE
Sun 16th July Ever Ready Natural Angle & Gem S/S [ 2] Nice shave with the British " G Bar", forgot just how good this can be.
Mon 17th July Alu General & Schick Proline Type P [ 9 ] Have had a series of great Shaves with different Razors, with the benefit of reduced whisker growth for the next Shave. Must be on a roll, as I got one of those face stroking Shaves from the Hawk.
SOTD July 17, 2017 Blade: Chinese Schick Razor: Schick E2 injector Brush: Surrey badger Lather: Stirling Grapefruit with menthol Post: Witch hazel, Stirling Grapefruit aftershave WTG, touch-up Schick E2 this morning. Smooth and comfortable but certainly more aggressive than my other injectors. I like using it when I have two days of growth as it mows it down so efficiently. Enjoyable shave. Have a great day!
July 17, 2017- Injector Focus Razor: Schick E2 Injector Blade: Chick (1) Brush: Razorock Plissoft 22 Cream: KMF fragrance-free Post: Alum, Listerine, WH Let me start by saying that I stand corrected. As much as I like the feel of the E2 with a Personna blade, it is much smoother with a Chinese Schick. A very easy path to an issue-free BBS.
What the heck are you waiting for. They are top notch injectors. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
Razor: ATT Bamboo SE1 Blade: Captain Titan Mild (2) Brush: Oscar 11, w/Omega 10049 Boar Soap: Route 66 Frozen Margarita A/S: Folsom Capri Bowl: Junichi Tanaka Scuttle Made through another shave with the ATT SE1. That's it for me. If anyone is interested in this razor PM me. Focus this month is on my aftershaves and Folsom Capri is one of my favorites.
I have a PAL deluxe model in a case. Made in England. It has not been used much. I think I will use it soon. The gold head and black handle looks great!
I know Tom. I'm actually mad at myself in a way, i look at it every day, I will use it soon.. Do you know what injector takes the two blades?
I have a G8 and LOVE it! What should I get next, an L, a J or an E? (Enablers please refrain from saying what we both know you want to say...)
Or if you have some twin injector blades, the L will move higher in the must have list.... Now before you whip that "enabler" tag out.....I plead innocent....or....or insanity.....yeah thats it....I pleads insanity... I just crazy for injectors.....
