SOTD May 21, 2018 Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap Blade: Personna Razor: Supply injector - classic two dot plate Brush: JR #60 synthetic Soap: Jeeves of Hudson Street Bay Rum Post: Witch hazel, RazoRock Blue Barbershop aftershave Second shave with the Supply injector. It has terrific heft and the head design looks similar to other injectors. However, there appears to be a sweet spot in the angle. Very effective when you're on that sweet spot and poor reduction when not. The past couple of shaves have taken a little more work to get where I want to be for a work shave. Interesting overall and I need more time before fully forming an opinion. Great Jeeves lather and nice finish from the Blue Barbershop. Hope you all have a great Monday!
Gillette Sheraton Rapira Swedish Supersteel (2) Semogue BC Mistura Stirling Electric Sheep A nice comfortable shave this morning. After getting bored and abandoning the year of micromatic, I am just going to use whatever strikes my fancy. Enjoy your day.

Thank you, Clint! It's an interesting razor. Jury is still out but it's fun to try something out. Thank you, Mark!
I find the Supply Co injector to be very similar to the Pal adjustable in shaving angle. An angle that would be perfect with a Schick achieves nothing; you have to angle the handle down a few more degrees (to the point the Schick would be digging in with the safety bar) and suddenly you have no stubble left. They are both different injectors that way.
Glad to report that since major cheek weeper the other day(the redness remains but the damage is gone), it's now safe enough for me to shave over it normally.
I wonder if anyone else has thought of this...in this fun hobby/chore we call shaving, we have Pino Silvestre and Clubman Pinaud.
Excellent photo, Ken! A little detour is acceptable every now and then! Another stunning photo, Clint! Excellent photo Perry and interesting report on the Supply Injector! Fancy strikes your Fancy, with the Sheraton! Fantastic photo, Mark!
Thank you, John! That makes perfect sense. The angle is definitely different than the Schicks. I never got a good shave with the PAL Adjustable. I had on pass-around and then owned one for a little while. The results with it and the Supply were similar to each other. I'll definitely try a different angle with tomorrow's shave.
