Happy Father's Day Everybody!!! Prep: Hot Whisker Rinse Lather: Barbasol Razor: 1973 Personna Floating Head Injector Blades: Personna/ems d2.....Schick Pro-line B-20 d2 Post: Skin Bracer....Clubman Original....a splash of each. Today I did a shave off between these two blades...Left Face: Personna....Right Face: Schick Pro-line In this razor, they both shaved equally close. 3 pass Super BBS ! The Personna had more blade feel/feedback and the Pro-line had that, "Is there a blade in this razor?" Type feel. This razor is extremely efficient...Very much like the PAL Injecto-matic, guess it's in it's DNA. But it feels very MILD, like a Schick L type.. This can be a little confusing for some...When it feels so mild, most folks want to use more pressure, but DON'T. No pressure needed, this is a deceptively aggressive injector razor! Great 3 Pass BBS!
It did cut but it wasn't smooth, this is why I said struggled. I use a Wilkie Sticky sometimes and it doesn't struggle, it just glides, so I don't know why.
