All is well with the C1, new blade was all it took. Very close and comfortable shave, a bit of irritation under the jaw but that's not uncommon for me even with injectors. Handle will take some getting used to but overall very happy shaving.
Warning to all here, the damaged F I bought and returned is back up for sale. Nice razor if you don't want to shave with it.

Tue. 12/13/16 Magnificent shave with the PAL Injecto-Matic this morning. Bountiful, slick, protective lather from the Palmolive Cool Menthol shave cream. Three passes for a refreshing dolphin smooth finish. Have a great day friends.
This Supply razor is easily the most efficient injector I have ever tried, edging out the E, and and beating the PAL adjustable by a safe margin. I have never had an R41 type shave out of an injector without having to work for it, cleaning up and buffing. Not with this razor. I did my regular passes, and trimmed up around my goat where I missed with the shavette last night, and was done. Done and done. A PERFECT shave on day 1. That was with a new Personna blade in the 3 plate. Can't wait to try a Feather in it. A guy should never say never, but this might have rounded out my safety razor collection for a good long time. I have my two favorite DE's, my two favorite SE's and now a possible grail injector to go along with my E2. I have never been a big RAD guy. I try a lot of razors, looking for the best one for my face, but I don't keep many of them. DE's hold little interest for me anymore. I will buy a Blackbird SE when they come out, but it will have to beat out my Mongoose. Only one stays. Time will tell, but this seems like one Hell of a razor.
My 3rd outing with this Schick E2 . Blade was noticeable on the face during the shave , felt quite harsh compared with other Injectors that I use. The end result was quite good all round , but not noticeably better than yesterdays shave with a PAL adjustable. I know the Dutch Schick is renowned for being sharp, maybe another blade will smooth out the Shave.
SOTD December 13, 2016 Schick L1 injector Chick blade Pacific Caffeinated Shave Cream Witch hazel mixed with Fine Platinum Nivea sensitive balm WTG, touch up Hotel shave, no picture. I hand lathered the Pacific cream. Decent shave. Not the best but not the worst either. It'll work just fine. I am in Chicago for a conference, but came up a day early with my wife to celebrate her birthday today! We're going to bundle up and head out to explore and eat. Have a great day!
I recently just scored a really minty one, but TBH, I was a bit underwhelmed. I mean it shaves great, but like all the others except the E, I still have to work for it. I think I am going to give it to my dad for Christmas.
