    I enjoy using it. I can't put my finger on the differences from the regular Clubman, but it seems lighter/brighter.

    I haven't yet purchased it. Interestingly, it has many 5-star reviews on Amazon.

    Schick adjustable injector, vintage Schick twin blade, shave 3
    [​IMG]

    This one was never formally designated and can be identified by the all the plastic handle without any stickering on it. This style was produced in the 1980s with this one produced between 1982 - 1984 since it has a logo stamped on the razor head. Razor was set to it's most aggressive setting. Smooth but sharp is how I would categorize it with some weepers on the ATG pass. End result this one gave an even better result than the N1 which is so far the best razor I've used with this blade with a BBS finish achieved. Next up since I noticed the guards on these adjustables are not always exact at the same setting across different model years is another more common Schick adjustable also known as a M2 which I know was designed for Twin blades.

    Maybe next year if I decide to stick to a single razor for more than 5 shaves.

    If you like regular Clubman, you will most likely enjoy the Classic Vanilla too.
