nice video, i also watched your type h video. you have a smooth injector shave technique. I am learning, the longer handled injectors give me trouble, but I a getting better with time . I used the lady eversharp k1 tonight
Thankyou. I that is a nice looking razor. I have not shaved with one like that in awhile. I think I have a J somewhere. If I am remembering correctly it has a longer handle like that
The more modern Schicks were designed [not those with rinsing levers] to take the Twin Blade. I get the most superb Shaves with a Twin in a Type N3, good in the I1 too.
Fri 7th April PAL Adjustable + Schick "chick" [ 1 ]. If you can handle this quirky Razor, it delivers Top class shaves. For me delivers a more consistent shave than I get with the modern Supply Single Edge.
Thanks, the blade is a nos schick teflon, and imho its very sharp, kinda wish i used it in my type n now, oh well

Razor: Supply Provision Custom 3 dot head Blade: Chick Brush: That Darn Rob silvertip Soap: Jeeves of Hudson Street Turkish Bath Post Care: Thayers Witch Hazel Alum Osage Rub Aftershave: Stirling Barbershop Excellent shave this morning, three easy passes for a BBS shave. I used a sample of the Turkish Bath, excellent product. It was slick, easy to lather and offered good protection. It matched up perfectly with the Stirling Barbershop aftershave. Have a great day folks!
...The injecto-matic is one of my favorite handles, flat and sqaure fits my fingers perfectly for a light touch.. I am going to use this more often.
I've used my injectomatic three times this week and love it! That razor might beat any Schick ever made. Nice razor!
Early morning shave today. 1911 Gem Junior lather catcher PAL AOS badger Williams WH Krampert's Finest Bay Rum A fine shave with this one. It is my last with it as I will be sending it to a new home Monday morning. I also threw together a video to show the Williams lathered with a badger brush. http://theoriginalsafety2.com/thread/2307/1911-gem-junior-shave-video
SOTD April 8, 2017 Blade: Chinese Schick Razor: Schick G8 injector Brush: Omega Hi synthetic Lather: Mitchell's Wool Fat Post: Witch hazel splash, Fine American Blend aftershave WTG, touch-up Same setup as yesterday and nice results again. The G8 is a smooth injector like the other Schicks. They are all good razors and enjoyable to use. Hope you have a great weekend!
I'll be exploring the whole Christy family* this month. Last night and this morning I used this mint 1926 Christy Massage Bar (sounds like someplace I may or may not have visited in Bangkok..). After stropping the Christy blade was definitely capable of a socially acceptable to DFS shave but not real comfortable. Fortunately a standard injector or trimmed AC works ok here. There can be some blade float as it's only compression keeping the blade in place, but I had no problem. For the head shave I just scotch taped the blade in place to be safe. I didn't bother for the beard and the Personna injector stayed in place. All good here. *Mark Cross, Enders, and Penn razors in the queue. Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
