Wednesday's Shave Schick Repeating Razor Type C Personna Blade CSB Badger D.R. Harris Arlington Shaving Soap 4711 Aftershave
I had a pretty good shave overall with the TNNSER 3D today. However the top cap is a little loose on this one and it slid back a little bit leaving the corners of the Blaine slightly exposed. Thos resulted in a few scratches on my lower neck. Luckily they aren't irritating and my shirt collar covers them. I'm really liking the Clubman Pinaud lilac vegetal aftershave lotion.
You have to be super careful when fitting the cap. You need some friction to hold everything together.
I may have to shim this one till I'm able to get another one printed. My wife's cousin keeps saying he will print me one but keeps forgetting. When I talk to him again what seems to be the best material for printing them in?
Also welcome to the “Chosen”. What does the significant other think of the Veg? Mine is indifferent. As she much prefers a musky and earthy scent on me. I like it for something different.
Thank you. It's kinda funny. Up till the Veg. Every time I ask her opinion on a shave related product scent she just says it smells like soap. When I asked about the Veg. She said "I really like it".
Thur 23rd July RazoRock 400. SE Plissoft noir P & B Pall Mall Wabbit V2 Schick Proline [ 2 ] Floid Vigoroso A/S Lotion Have been quite busy trying out Tom Whites 3 D creations - Wabbit V1 & V2 which are designed to take Injector Blades. Have had varying quality Shaves with a Schick [Chick] & Personna , best results being with the Schick Chick but would be easy to get nicks and cuts by using too much pressure and rushing. Over the last couple of days I have used the A/C Schick Proline in both Razors, and got really great shaves on both occasions. Shaves with this blade are smooth and forgiving , much more so than the Standard Injector blades. The V2 has a bit more blade feel and I feel sure that the finish quality was better than that attained with the V1. Maybe one more outing is needed. Well done Tom another great creation, if this one was a commercial proposition Gillette and Schick would need to watch out
Rec'd my first injector type razor today. That's not my name engraved on the handle but for $5.oo I'll gladly answer to it from now on! From checking out how to "date" vintage Schicks, I'm guessing that this would be a 1935 to 1945 E2. Round spring that only opens to the left (it has a right side restraint) , flaps and caramel handle with no seam. Would it be considered a Deluxe model with the textured finish and engraved name? Alas, of course, there was no case.
