The Haul - July 2016

Thank you fellas! The one thing my wife likes about my hobby is the "pretty" brushes!

 

Can't wait to try this out tonight...

Schick E4 (I think) and Personna blades

 

Looks like a G1 to me. Does it have two Patton numbers on the other side to the left of the spring?

"U.S. PATS. 1806087 (above) 1969945" and "Schick Injector" marked on spring base. Immovable spring with no flaps. Parallel grooves on safety bar. Handle has seam.


I'm having the dickens of a time nailing this thing down...from what I can gather (so far), the Eversharp name wasn't used until what, 1946? And the Type E used seamless Bakelite handles, while the Eversharps used seamed plastic? Really a challenge here.

 

That confirms it. It is a G1. I love mine

I added some stuff to my last post...I've heard the G is milder than the E, correct? I'm fixing to find out here pretty soon. (Thanks for your help...I have another one on the way I'll probably need some info on, too.)

Edit: It's no wonder you love this thang. It's *sweet*.

Speaking of G1's... mine arrived today and is ready for it's first shave tomorrow.

A question, though... What's the deal with the textured vs. smooth head? I notice that @'65 G-Slim has a smooth one while I have a textured one.

 

I've seen lots of Masonic mugs, but that's the first Odd Fellow's mug I've ever seen.

 

Nice President.

 

They say the E series are more aggressive, but that doesn't stop my G from giving me a two pass BBS

 

Lots of different options in the G series. What color is the handle on yours ?

 

I'm not sure of the correct name, but it's a marbled butterscotch (if that makes sense).

 

Most of them are G1's except the ones with the clear handles, turquoise handles, blue handle with chrome head, and gold handles.

this site is a good source of info:

Thanks!

 

For me anyway, the "G" seems to be more aggressive than my "I" or "L", of which I like the "I" the best. The "G" works good as a two pass razor, but with some irritation for me. But like it's been mentioned here many times, everyone is different and one razor might be great for someone and just ok for others.
