I played around with the Repeating Razors vs Shake Sharp the last couple days, but the Shake Sharp beats em all. I won't get more than 6 or as so shaves from the Wilkinson Super Sword Edge (my head shaves are brutal on blades) so maybe not worth the premium paid but a sweet combination it is.

Schick G Razor Personna Injector Blade GW Synthetic Brush (26mm) Proraso Green Soap Dickinson's Witch Hazel Aqua Velva Ice Blue After Shave
This is my ninth shave with a straight. I am using the Enders Speed Razor for clean up. It is doing a fine job, as I am unable to get a satisfactory shave with just the straight. I am still learning. I will use the Enders until I can get a decent shave without it.
You are reaching critical mass and when that first decent shave happens you will be hooked. Just around the corner...
Tues 31st Jan Stepped it up a gear - Feather Pro in the General. Need the weight of a S/S Handle, to make it work for me. A really efficient and super close shave.
SOTD January 31, 2017 Blade: Chinese Schick Razor: Personna injector Brush: Omega Hi synthetic Lather: Route 66 Sweeney Todd Post: Witch hazel splash enhanced with Stirling Piacenza aftershave, Nivea sensitive balm WTG, touch-up Nice, easy, and efficient shave with the Personna injector this morning. It's certainly a mild razor, but that's okay with me as I don't really care for aggressive ones. My workday shaves need to be easy and this razor can provide that. Have a great day!
First full shave with the newly arrived F. I'll agree that it doesn't shave as spectacularly as it looks but that would be virtually impossible. A beautifully balanced shave, maybe not quite as close as the I/twins combo but similarly comfortable, I'll choose this over the E and G any day. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
If you have any vintage Dutch blades, or Feather AC blades. Use them. It WILL transform this razor. If you don't have them, shoot me a PM. I will hook you up. Tom Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
I sold my General and Hawk but kept some AC blades on hand for just such nefarious purposes. I'll give that a try next Tom, thanks pal. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
No problem. I felt the same way after my first shave. It was nice, but not earth shattering. The AC will make a huge difference. Tom Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
