    My shave for the night.
    Schick E2
    Chick blade (3)
    AOS Sandalwood Cream
    3D brush with WD 24mm Pure Black Badger.
    Finished off with Aqua Velva very nice and cool feeling.

    Tonights shave with my E2 (US) blew the doors off of my E3 (Canadian) I did nick my neck with the dreaded touch too early on a side angle.
    This puppy kills my whiskers dead. First pass WTG knocked them down really nice. Second pass XTG gave me a DFS. I would normally stop at this point it was so good. But this baby is soon smooth I went for a third pass ATG. Got myself a BBS with only needing touchup on my adams apple. I usually have problems with under my jaw but this razor kills it there.

    Unfortunately I think this shave will last more than a day. :(

    Oh yeah...Forgot about those blades an all...Those NOS PAL Injector blades can feel a Tad Ruff for a few passes....They do smooth out however there on after and offer a very smooth BBS result of your life....Bitter & Sweet though...Personally I don't use them cause you have to pass through that Bitter moment to get to the Sweet..They do take a more than a moment to settle...I wouldn't recommend them..;)
    That said...If you like Bitter & Sweet they can Rock...:git:

    We'll see.....A new pack of Chinese Schick Blades made the scene today, in preparation for the Big Event.....
    Now I'm thinking that Injecto-matic is probably coming across the border from Canada about now....
    I sure hope none of our Shave Denizens work in U S Customs....:shocked003: It might take weeks of trial shaving for that baby to make it through.....:eek:

    I haven't shaved since Saturday....Now I'm thinking of not shaving til my PAL makes the scene....You could say I'm preparing the playing field....
    I've seen the picture of this razor....Definitely looks more like a Jessica James to me....and somewhat of a Hottie at that....whew!

    A very nice 3 pass shave with touch ups got me a near BBS. This is only my 3rd time using the G Type and in all honesty I can't tell that much difference compared to my I1.

    First complete shave with the Schick C2 is in the books and have to say it was almost perfect. Three effortless passes, near BBS and no irritation. Tomorrow I will be trying the OC version C1 for comparison.

    The G Type will go up a Notch with a Personna Blade in it Sir..I find the G Type to be a Tad mild with a Chinese blade...:)

    Ok I have been thinking I want to try and make an injector razor for myself. Have some questions on what to incorperate.
    1. What should I use for blades? Feather or go with Schick type?
    2. open comb or solid bar?
    3. Ability to switch from open to smooth?
    4. Make it so it has the ability to add your own handle?

    Does anybody have the specs. for how blade exposere works?
    Any suggestions would be apreciated.
    I am just in the thinnking stages right now.
    How do you make a poll so I can get all ideas shown?

    Thanks in advance for your input.

    Tom

    Well I was able to beat the rush today. On my way home stopped at a Vintage store to see what they had. Yes you guessed it I am following in the footsteps of @Karl G . I was brave enough to go pay the lady. So I am the proud owner of Schick's finest:D

    All you guys with those D's and F's. Eat your hearts out.:happy108:I will give a shave report once I work up the nerve to try this beauty.:rofl:

    That's the ticket! :happy088: Get ready to be blown away with a super close shave - I paired it with a Personna blade.

    Real men wear pink? Nope, they shave with an H! :rofl:

    Are the Persona blades the "Ted Pella"?
