I read about this yesterday. Mongoose has brought out the Minigoose razor. It takes injector blades! http://www.maggardrazors.com/produc...ainless-steel-single-edge-razor-satin-finish/ Much too rich for me at that price, but it's intriguing nonetheless.
I have them in my shop! The only thing is that you have to cross load them into a keyed injector magazine and then use that to inject them into the razor. Beautiful N1 Rob!
I agree! I don't think I've paid more than $20 for any of my razors. They're all vintage and work great!
04/05/2018 - Shave of the Night Do you like TEA TREE? If you do - than this is the ULTIMATE TEA TREE SHAVE hands down! The Schick Repeater Type B2 really kicks A$$ with the PROLINE blade -- getting used to this razor and finally getting used to the different angle (this is not the same as the G, E, L, M, N, O) -- Pheonix Shaving as a new brush folks - 12.95 with a Faux Horse Knot and I strongly feel the faux horse knot is the BEST synth knot - and yes better than the Tuxedo or Plissoft - FLOPPY with Back bone - NOT TANGLE like a really horse hair knot - the GREEN RAY for the price really is a GREAT DEAL - the handle is a replica of a very obscure Ever Ready - and it is a perfect handle to pinch - and this is not that small - so dont think its a small brush,,,, also the colors rule - peace out - JAMIE
In complete agreement with you that the angle for the B injector is far different than letters E and on. I don't know about the angle of A, C, D, of F, because I haven't tried those. The angle of the B reminds me a lot of the angle for the Bunny injector that many of us tried a while back. Regardless, the B provides an excellent experience!
I love my Type N's Loaded with a TWIN there really is not much that beats it - also love the way that razor looks - modern yet vintage --- an enigma wrapped in a riddle?
TABAC - best explained by FUZZY " BUCKET FULL OF GERMAN GOODNESS" I dont get the old lady purse? than again i never sniffed my grandmothers purse either - not sure how that came about? Lotta' PURSE sniffers out there?
See Andrew has pre empted me. He is selling them at a fair price,and is a gentleman to deal with. Mike
You're right Jaime. A very sleek, modern look to it. I love the long handle. Makes it very maneuverable. ☺️
It's not much hassle Roby and very much worth the little effort required. It's easier if there's already a blade in the magazine your feeding the Proline into. Kevin.
Brush: WDC-8/Maseto 24mm 2BF Soap: D.R. Harris Lavender Stick Razor: Igor (on loan) Blade: Gem Blue Star Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Vitamin E Oil, Cella Eau de Lavande First time with the Igor and I tried it on mid setting. It's a very audible razor and has quite a bit of blade feel even on mid setting. Both helped me find and maintain the ideal angle. When rinsing whilst shaving it needs a few shakes, as the head holds a lot of water, possibly even more than a 1924. I'm very impressed indeed and it never ceases to amaze me just how talented some members of these forums are. If this was for sale or a Kick Starter project I'd be all over it. Happy Shaving one and all.
