  1. J1, Schick Proline B-20, shave 2.
    j1a.jpg j1b.jpg

    The J1 comes in 2 variants this one is being stamped Eversharp Schick and the other being stamped Schick Safety Razor. This razor is not the mild J injector, this one is the same shaver as an I2 or white handle I1 that is stamped Eversharp Schick. I also learned something about these razors with today's shave. I purposely tried to angle the head so I used the guard to stretch the skin while shaving. Once I got the angle locked in I have never experienced a safety razor with that much blade on the face. I might as well have been shaving with a straight razor with skin stretcher in front of it. Did it make the overall shave better I don't know but it certainly made it more aggressive. I had some serious feedback on alum block afterwards something I normally don't get with an I2 or equivalent when using a slightly steeper angle.

  3. Wed 28th August.
    Jayaruh Syn. No67
    Williams Mug Soap
    Schick Type F
    Schick "Chick" [ 4 ]
    Pitralon Original A/S Lotion

    This Razor is probably the nicest of my Schicks to hold, the material and shape of the handle make it so tactile. As a Razor it is not overly aggressive, but the Razor is quite efficient and such a pleasure to use that without any problems a good quality finish is attained.

    Williams Wednesday's Shave

    [​IMG]

    Cold Water Rinse
    Williams Mug Shaving Soap
    Jayaruh #144
    Enders Speed Razor
    Enders Speed Blade
    CWR
    Florida Water

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Williams Mug Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #144 Brush. I did two passes with the Enders Speed Razor with an Enders Speed Blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    A marvelous midweek shave.
    Happy Shaving one and all.
  10. Love that razor. I may pull mine out next week. However, not an injector or SE razor.
  11. Looks like a single edge to me, just has one on the opposite side also so that you don't have to rinse the blade as often.

  12. On the road and minimizing space. You’ll see this combo more than a few times in the future. The NOS blades paired extremely well with the E2. :happy036:
