Sun 22nd November Cyril Salter/ MS. ED2band Ach Brito Mogno-soap bar ER 1924 Gem S/S [ 4 ] Tuff Green A/S Lotion After a couple of Days using a Granado shave bar I reverted to the Mogno. What a contrast. applied to the Face directly and worked up a lather with the brush. What a contrast a nice dense lather on the Face, and enough retained on the brush to last the Shave. Needed a bit more concentration with the Vintage SE, after using the more forgiving AC/SEs.Overall quite a nice Shave with a good finish.

Anyone heard of this new Parker Adjustable injector? I learned about it last night and decided to buy one this morning. I absolutely don't need another razor!! However, it's hard to pass up a chance to try a newly manufactured injector. Click HERE for a link to the Parker website.
I was out of town for the weekend but used the same setup today as Saturday. Great shaves then and today.

I'm glad to see a company produce a "tribute" razor that's of the SE variety! It looks like the PAL Adjustable razor. When you get the new one, I look forward to your thoughts on how it compares to the PAL (I remember you said the PAL has a unique angle that takes a while to acclimate to using).
The PAL Adjustable is a challenge for me. The angle is not intuitive. It can shave really well if the angle is just right; it can also leave tons of stubble behind when the angle is wrong. The Schicks are much easier. We'll see how the Parker compares!
