Injector & SE Party !!!

Grey cup Sunday, Ottawa VS Calgary. I think I'm going to cheer for ..............Ottawa. Calgary has maybe some advantage being close to home turf.

 

I thought for sure you would root for Calgary. Wrong again.
Should be a great game.
One of my son's played for Winnipeg (got drafted fourth overall, and also played with Saskatchewan.

 

I shaved with this fantastic Canadian E2 with a G1 handle over three years ago shortly after I got it - and then forgot about it. Well, it won’t be three years between shaves again. It provided an amazingly smooth and close shave. One of the best in the den.

Happy shaving - Karl

 

The Canadian G2 looks great also Karl.

 

I grew up in the Ottawa area born in Brockville Ontario, mostly lived in Maitland Ont along the St Lawrence seaway before moving to Alberta in 1976 were the work was.
Football is a big deal in your family with your Son doing very well in the CFL. Right now Calgary is winning 27 to 14 with 1 minute to go, always next year!

I have fitted my version 1 Razor with a N03 [ V2] which I acquired because I could not get a Shave with the original. Now I can get a smooth enough Shave with an acceptable but not a startling finish.All in all a rather disappointing Razor.

Cold Water Wash
Proraso Green
Jayaruh #206
Pal Injectomatic
Vintage Pal Hollow Ground
CWR
Osage Rub

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Van Der Hagen Proraso Green Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #206 brush. I did two passes with the Pal Injectomatic Razor with a Personna blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Those lather catchers are great. Love the handle.

 

Thank you! That handle was made by the Michelangelo of Lather Catcher handles and brushes..He is a blessing to vintage razors for giving them new life!

Terrific, Clint! Looking forward to your thoughts on the Supply.

 

Thank you Perry. You can see that it requires a different angle the Schick Injectors.

 

Definitely. The handle was almost perpendicular to my face with the Supply. I had trouble with the angle, especially on my neck, so I determined after a trial that it wasn't a good razor choice for me.

 

Very good picture with a great looking brush Amigo.

 

Thank you Doug.

 

I think the angle is harder for those that have a lot of time with Schick injectors. The razor feels a lot like a downsized Cobra to me. Now if it works that well, I am in business.
