It only took one weekend for the OC to win me over. Mine is with Nick at Sport Shaving for replating. I am already looking forward to getting it back in hand.
I picked up some single edge blades at cvs. The package says they are made in the U.S. Are the personas?
Tonight I benched the SP for my favorite Schick E3. Two passes and some Thayer's touchups later and I was good to go. God bless the Injector Razor.

The 1924, patent applied for made a great shave today. I happened to notice CVS single edge blades were different than last time. This time they were made in U.S. The Shave was very good. They were able to quiet the vey noisy shovelhead, and left me silky smooth. In past tries, i found it difficult to get single edge blades to live past two shaves. I dried this one and dabbed it with vaseline, hope it stays this sharp.
SOTD May 19, 2017 Blade: GEM Stainless Razor: GEM Pushbutton Brush: Omega 10049 boar Lather: Mitchell's Wool Fat Post: Witch hazel, Fine American Blend aftershave WTG, touch-up The Pushbutton continues to be a terrific razor. I get close and comfortable shaves with it. I've used the razor and blade for five days this week and the blade seems to be sharp and able to continue longer. I'll move that blade over to the Featherweight for next week's shaves. I may go for seven and then swap it out. But excellent shave overall. Very enjoyable. Have a great day!

I think I can now be part of the party. I got in on the Supply Injector 2.0 kickstarter. Been meaning to pick up an injector for a while and I'm a sucker for stainless steel razors. And now, I wait.
In the mean time, keep your eye out for a PAL adjustable, a vintage stainless steel injector razor. It may give your Supply a run for its money. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
I got some Twinjector blades sent to me by @Screwtape - thank you sir! Looking forward to trying them out, probably with a Schick L1 to start with.
