For me, I use the EMS/Personnas as a daily thing and spoil myself every now and then; like having lobster and steak; with loading a 74....of course the 74s last longer than any other blade...So the spoiling continues for many shaves...ha,ha... If you can find them, it's never a bad thing to pick up some 74s for future spoiling....I've never heard of anyone dissing them...
Yoooouuu! You have some nerve walking in here like nothings happening and then rubbing a new shiney F type under our collective noses....!!! Just kidding......Congrats Baby! That F is looking real sweet! Let us know how it rubs ya!....As you know, theres been an awful lot of superlatives flying around here later about that razor...We need more, man on the street (or vacation) type feed-back....}8^D
Listen Roger, just looking to help out...if things don't work out between you and that Type F, which I understand can happen from time-to-time, YMMV and all that you know eh? I'd be there to help out in that unpleasant circumstance and take it off your hands or what have you. Just looking to help you out if you need.
I just made it back from my Shave Cave... This was my ride tonight: 3 pass plus touch-ups and a little buffing here and there brought shaving Ecstacy...The Hydrozilla lives up to her legacy....
Sorry for being so smug.......not really. I will share the results of the maiden voyage, likely this weekend.
Thanks man. This is what I love about this forum....guys unselfishly offering help. I would need to recoup at least a portion of the $7 and the five minutes worth of elbow grease I've got into it though.
OMG - $7 ?!!!! You are living under a lucky star and some mega-karma my friend. Keep it up and enjoy the razor! And if ever so inclined, I'd love to take it for a test ride! Cheers! RT
$7... Now you've done it!:ahem: Bring it on!!! I got your 7 Dollars! Just kidding again...Deliberately wasting your time...I can't seem to resist these smileys.... Carry on....looking forward to a stroke by stroke account of the maiden voyage...Hopefully she'll exceed your wildest expectations....and if not maybe @Rufus T. can take her off your hands so he can stop drooling....I believe I saw some drool running out of my screen onto my keyboard with his last post.....ha,ha....Just kiddin' Ru...., Cheers mate...
Here is a serious WARNING....These are very Tricky to load...Its so easy to unwittingly run the blade across the stops....Cant really say anymore than that really...The Chinese Schick Injector Key will fit flush with F Type....Some injector keys wont.... Enjoy the Almighty F Type Sir.... Billy
Thanks for the tip. The plus platinum injector fit ok. I partly loaded a blade to push out a nasty looking blade it came with.

I think Schick injectors have finally achieved the collector appreciation that they deserve Link here
And then the cat says it needs a good cleaning...at that price I would expect it to be unused, spotless, and not only give me a great shave, but make my lather, give me a massage and after the shave, fix breakfast....
You know, Gary....I'm really starting to think, that maybe the E2s are my favorite razor.....I don't know how I feel about that. I'm too young to be plunked from the prime of life, and have this razor make an honest shaver out of me... If it does turn out like this....I can still play the field with Soaps, After Shaves and Cream ADs.....mua,ha,ha,ah...
