New arrival from Israel. Evidently Personna is manufactured and distributed under names other than Personna in Israel. I've found some stuff on Google about this but nothing definitive. Anyways, here is a what an Eddison Floating Head injector looks like. Anyone notice any similarities? I have some nice Schick NOS Super Chromiums coming and will use one of those with the Eddison for a maiden shave. Can't wait. Update: I have been advised that the NOS Twin Blades may be better - Perhaps tomorrow then... Karl
That's a Lovely & Rare example that Sir...These are very elegant to use and shaves like a Rolls Royce for me...Just use it like a normal injector though..Its temting to push it more than usual cause its a Floating Head...Not good for the Auld Face... I am talking from Bitter Experience... Billy..
If it does she's one very lucky young lady....I've always thought they were one of the coolest looking injectors evah....and being a 'G'...well if it was good enough for Cary Grant......}8^)) Man, and NIB....You'll have to tell me where in Ore. you went....of course you probably cleaned that wild herd flat out...ha,ha... I'm predicting you're gonna love that I2, and of course those PALs and....well....doesn't look like theres a dog in your whole stable.....You're gonna love driving all of those.....I checked out a few Lady Eversharps with the Hydro-magic levers over the years....They are fantastic and very nice looking with long handles to help in leg shaving....Just throwing out an idea for stocking stuffers for Ladies....I get ideas so seldom, a wouldn't want to waste one.. @Rufus T. Do you have a ER 1924 ?.....Let me know....
Ah, the '24 Shovelhead! When we met at the Seattle Shave Con I had just had my first shave with it that morning - SE September right? That and the 1912 Junior turned out to be two of my favorite SEs, other than the injectors. Florence, on the Oregon coast, with a treasure trove of antique shops just off the beach to attract all the tourists. I was pretty lucky that day. As you might imagine, my partner tried that turquoise G5 and really liked it...and as you laid it out, I went online and found a baby blue Lady Eversharp type K hydro-magic - pristine, still in the box, never used, instructions...whole nine yards! It'll be under the tree next month. I'm a pretty lucky guy! Hope all is well with you Mr.B. I'm thinking of importing some more Arko if you're interested?
Ahhh maaaannnn! She's gonna flip....When all is said and done....IMHO....there has never been a better razor than the Lady Eversharp....Sure we all love a number of different razors for different reasons...And that one you have for your SWMBO, is perfect in every way...I know you must be excited waiting to see her reaction.... I am going to import a few sticks....How many were you thinking you wanted?
Yes, I'm a lucky fella! I'm pretty good on the Arko right now...even though I just sent one to my son and another to my brother in starter shaving kits - just spreading the gospel! BTW - importing a few sticks? What, do you have a connection in Turkey? Isn't it the same product that you can get on the Amazon for about $2 per stick?
Yep...exactly the same product.....We are lucky that it's so available here...And it should be...I mean, no matter how bad things can get...at least we know, for a couple bucks we can get a glorious lather daily for about 3 months from one priceless stick of sunshine, called Arko.......unbelievable....Worth 10xs as much... My brother in law is visiting for the Holidays...He will probably bring me a few sticks...Let me know if you want...But I just saw 12 sticks for $12 if you have Amazon Prime...thats probably cheaper than you can buy it in Turkey.... EVERYONE.....Dig It!!!!! Amazon Prime members.....12 sticks of Arko for $12.....Thats like a 10 year supply....Ha, ha...But I know all you cats are like me...and you end up piffing most of it....But it sure is cool to have it to Pif...
I know what will be in my type F this morning. After having to rely on inferior blades for the past week or so, my shipment of Chicks showed up. I have yet to find a blade that is comparable. If you havent tried em, you are doing yourself a disservice.....
I think tomorrow will be the day. I wanted to use my D again today. I'm really liking it. It does have a bit of the "cheeky wee monkey" in it as Billy says. It can get just ever so slightly overly aggressive without realizing it - but super efficient and smooth. I'll be rubbing my face most of the day marveling at the result.
I want to thank RT and Billy for single-handedly aggravating my very limited SE RAD. I thought I was happy with my simple collection of injectors and 2 1912-like SE's (Star/Treet). But NOOOO, they convinced me otherwise. It all happened innocently enough. I made the mistake of asking questions about Schick injectors and they, being the gentlemen that they are, naturally provided the answers. I never saw the insidious RAD disease creeping up on me until it was too late. So, today I picked up this E-2 with the opening head - the type they described. I'm obviously a mind-numbed robot and can't control myself! Hey....have you guys been learning from my wife? Thanks guys!
