    Sunday Schick Shave, July 4th 2021, Happy Independence Day. Well I have tinkered with the Kai Protouch with my Schick M3 adjustable a few months ago with a spent Protouch(8 shaves) and it was a good shave even then. Well Yesterday had my first shave with a AC 50mm Kai Protouch(3) in my Yaqi 50mm Excalibur razor a couple of days ago(Friday) and was very impressed so I altered that blade for my Canadian variant G1 Hybrid(make sure to stone any burrs from cutting blade). Well the results were very impressive with a much sharper blade then with the previous experiment. I even applied a little pressure that is a no no usually, but with my experience level good with my Schick injectors I knew there was hardly a chance of a nick with the way it felt + was performing well. Thought I would share this little experiment that worked so well, one of my smoothest BBs shaves with my Schick Canadian G1 variant. Another blade alternative for some Schick[​IMG] injector owner's who like to tinker a little?

    Razor:
    Schick Canadian variant G1 Hybrid- Mfg 1940's-50s NDCodes, excellent light weight mid range, very enjoyable razor.

    Blade: Kai Protouch altered (4) excellent blade, sharp & smooth with reasonable longevity. Favorite blade in the 50mm so far.

    Soap: Tabac, nice mild flowery clean scent + excellent lather qualities.

    Brush: Yaqi 24mm Tuxedo knot with black marble handle [​IMG], excellent lather generator with cloud like soft tips, nice scrub + excellent lather painter.

    Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera on the cleaned beard area.

    Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + pickups. WTG + ATG + pickups.

    Post shave: Fine fresh Vetiver aftershave with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.

    Results: CCS,DFS,BBs + no irritation + no weepers =[​IMG]excellent shave with my Schick injector G1 Canadian variant with a altered Kai Protouch blade.
