    So for my shave this morning I used made in the good old USA.

    Razor: GEM Damaskeene, New York
    Blade: PAL Super Single Edge, Verona, Virgina
    Soap: Lilac Shave Stick, Mystic Waters, Riverdale Park, Maryland
    Brush: Satin Tip, The Purest(I will admit this is the one piece I am unsure of where it was made)
    Post-Shave: After Shave Witch Hazel, Thayers, Westport, CT

    Well gentlemen after the past month I have used Injectors all but maybe twice. I am starting to question my decision to get into straight razors. 20170704_112808~3.jpg

    I couldn't tell you as I have no idea other then it looks like a column. Here's a pic. It may be a franken razor. The head is a Dammy though. 20170704_210335~2.jpg

    So I have come to the conclusion, If I want a stellar shave I need to use my SE's and injectors.

    Straights are a blast, but they cannot get under my jaw line. So I will be using 2 razors per shave.

    That is the older Dammy head. Check out the heart cutout in the blade spring.

    Use the English Version, Click on shipping details for postage costs. Do not go for EMS, specify Small Packet Post in your order, and they will work out the cost.

    Great shape of the Head on this Razor, makes it easy to make subtle adjustments of the shaving angle to suit the different planes to be shaved.

    I'm in the same camp on the G. I collected and have all of the variations. I think they are among the most cool looking razors - they are like industrial art to me. G Series line up.JPG
    I want to like shaving with them. I have tried every blade combination with them. But they still don't do it for me. One of these days I'll sell them off. But the C, D, E, F, H or an I with a twin? Bring 'em on. :happy036:

    According to Karl I guess I need an "I" as my next injector. BTW, my wife has temporarily confiscated my E3 saying, "Where have you kept this one hidden?". I'll get it back. I'll reintroduce her to the Lady Eversharp.

    Talk about razor porn. OMG. I just started salivating. When you get ready to pass them on keep me in mind.

    You definitely need an I - if you were born in 1958 it's your birth year razor. How can you say no? :) But, you have two choices

    Actually, you have a third choice with the I2 - the Hydro-Magic. Just be forewarned - no twins in that one. :rolleyes005:

    There is actually a fourth choice, as I found out after I got mine. It's an early type I, a model 55, which has the same type of head profile as the Hydro-Magic. The top part which covers the blade is shorter than the typical type I, similar to the length of the Hydro-Magic. Seems like the Hydro-Magic was based on this head. For me, it's my favorite Schick I.
