Happy Friday Clint. Nice setup and picture.

 

I like the CC soaps very much. I find them very easy to lather and they have good scent.

 

Thank you Amigo. It has been a rough week. I am glad it is Friday.

 

Friday Planned SOTD

Gem Micromatic Clog-Pruf razor
Vintage Simpsons keyhole 1 brush
Eufros by Jabonman Tobacco shaving soap
Barrister & Mann Cologne Russe aftershave

 

Good setup and picture. I like the looks of your brush.

 

Captains Choice "North" is one of my top three aftershave scents. I PIF'd my CC Bay Rum aftershave to a good friend as he had never experienced the "burn"..........

 

I can hear your Injectomatic sobbing like a spurned lover.....

 

Thanks, most of my vintage butterscotch brushes are display queens but I do use this one often because its been restored with a wonderful 2band finest knot. The keyhole handle is pleasing to the eye and extremely comfortable to hold.

Bulgarian creams are wonderful - this Top Ten Sensitive lathers rich, creamy, and thick with a great refreshing scent and lots of cooling. Its skincare is also really terrific. I had another great menthol kick from the Max Refreshing aftershave. BBS so easily!

 

Nice pic!
That's a scent that I'm still working on understanding.
I have it on my desk and sniff it a few times a day...slowly getting there, but there is definitely a lot to get your sniffer around!

Thanks Roby, it was a dirty mess and shipped with loose spent blades!!! the horror !

Well I tossed all the blades - took my tooth brush and dawn soap to it, than left it in a jar of hot water and dawn soap for 2 hours. after that - it looked like a razor that was barely used, I did same process to the case and that looks pretty darn good! this is my 2nd injecto matic - the other is almost the same but has a blue middle part between the handle and blade, and head is nickel or silver color. So basically Pal created injecto matic that are all the same expect colors and the notorious adjustable that I have heard some good and bad (mostly bad) reviews,,, are there any other PAL injectors?

But - would rate schick type E as my favorite for single blades, followed by PAL injecto-matic, than the type G and followed by the Type I

Now I still need to try the twin injector blades - and I have a type N, O (clone) and schick adjustable ready for that fun. I have acquired a large number of injectors - there just so easy and affordable to get - I also love how its the middle ground between a cartridge and a straight razor! I love DE's and have hundreds of blades and razors to use and try - but I cant put the injector DOWN. Col Schick you Genius!!! thank u sir!!! and Rest in peace

Thanks,
Jamie B.
