Injector & SE Party !!!

Thank you Andrew, enjoy your day buddy.

 

You can't love em all, and thus far I find little to recommend El Jefe. Two different handles, three different blades, lots of playing with alignment and I get a very close if not terribly smooth face shave and an awful head shave. Microchatter on the hard cranium that doesn't evidence itself on the beard? I dunno. I may give it one more shot before it goes BST but for me in a world of Hawks and Generals this has no reason to exist . I finished up with the Colonial.

 

The Schick C3 provided another effortless 2 pass DFS today. I'm ranking this my #2 favorite Schick razor right behind the type D for consistant great shaves.

 

Great pic. I love the brush. How old is it?

 

Thanks. I'm not sure the age of the Simpson keyhole brush as its new to me

Frank Shaving Badger Brush
WSP Fougere Noir Soap
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Barbasol Brisk After Shave

Went for the Push Button today, but used a blade that had two shaves on it from the G-Bar. I was pleasantly surprised as it ranks among my best shaves over all and my best SE shave to date. And I seriously doubt it can get any better. It was a wonderful three pass BBS shave that was both smooth and comfortable. Just an incredible shaving experience.

 

Glad you finally got one. They are everything you say, surprisingly smooth and a super close shave.

 

Are there injectors still being made somewhere?

 

They're is a company that make an O type clone. You can get them on Amazon.

Excellent shave with the PAL Injecto-Matic this morning. Wonderful lather from the Arko shave cream. Three refreshing passes for a dolphin smooth finish. Have a great day friends.

The GEM Featherweight was not all that comfortable this morning. I blame the blade. I've had really good shaves with this razor and blade combo in the past but today's felt tuggy and slightly rough. I'll change out the blade if I go with this razor again tomorrow. Or I might just go back to an injector. The Soap Commander Passion lathered up beautifully again and provided great support for the shave.

Have a great day!

 

My favorite type of Schick.

 

Never seen that liquid shave cream before. I've always wondered about their face tonic, too.

 

Mine too!

 

Both are excellent products. The cream is very slick and the tonic tones and soothes like no other post shave I have ever used

 

there was a recent review on the LT shave cream on youtube. Looks pretty good!
