    Hello Fellow Shavers,

    I would like to start a Schick Type H pass around. This razor is known around here as the Hussy. It it supposed to give a shave that many consider a top 5 if not better. I get a decent shave from it and I thought that others might like to try it out for themselves. Here are the rules:
    Open for CONUS only for now.
    1. Anybody in the CONUS can join in. Newbs are encouraged to join in.
    2. You are responsible for the razor from the time you receive it until the time the next person receives it.
    3. Shipping just make sure there is a tracking number supplied to the person you are sending it to and to myself.
    4. Please make sure to clean the razor before you send it to the next person. As this is an injector please leave the old blade in, so the person receiving it can use a new blade of their choice.
    When you receive the razor. I highly recommend you clean the razor too. Use a new blade.
    My injector blade supply is rather limited at the moment so this will start off with just the razor. If you have spare blades please feel free to add them to the Pass Around.
    Make sure that you have blades before it is your turn with the razor.
    5. Time with the razor. 7-10 days is a decent time to spend with it.
    6. Post your thoughts of the razor on this thread.

    Pretty straight forward stuff. As we are all honest people here, this should go nice and smooth. It will be an open ended Pass Around. When we run out of participants the last person will send the razor back to me.

    Please post here if you're interested and I'll add you to the list.

    This is a great opportunity for anyone who wonders if the fuss around this razor can actually be real. Here's my shave report on this one (#4234) - hopefully it convinces you to try it out. The Hussy doesn't mess around! :happy036:

    I'm definitely down to give it a shot. But I'm getting Tom's adjustable soon so if I can be #3 that would be great

    Sure thing Conner. I'm using it this week before sending it off so it's going to be a few until it gets to you.

    OK you talked me into it I'll try the "Hussy" and see if it can be included in my top 5 razors. I'll tell you one thing I'm really starting to like these injectors more and more. Every time I use my M3 Protector with the Schick Twin Blades in it I just can't believe that any other razor is needed. I just lover my M3 and my G1 gets better every time I use it now that I know you need a light touch with it. So I guess I'll see what the H has to offer. Thanks @ob1page .

    Sounds good Ken, you're in at the #2 spot! Injectors and SE razors are a big rabbit hole for me. They offer me my best shaves by far.

    I would be interested in joining. I have never used an injector and will need to buy blades. What should I get?

    Fantastic! I'll add you to the list. I use these blades:

    They are Schick blades made in China. Easy to find and relatively inexpensive. They also last a good amount of time and work pretty good.
