    Shave for OCtober 13th ...

    The FaTip is a very aggressive razor and even in this configuration I will only use it a second day (13th) and then move to something else in the OC rotation. Usually a razor such as this, or the 2013 R41, gets used for two days then it is back to a less aggressive razor.

    27th December 2014 Shave

    A very interesting shave. The vintage Gillette Trac II Twin Injector Blade worked great in the J3 overall a nice 2 pass BBS. Now I did make one critical mistake which was the fault of user and not the razor or the blade. I found out that the double bladed injectors are thicker than the regular blades so when you use the Hydro-Magic lever the blade will not reseat properly. I got a small nick behind the ear after I used the lever and looked and found what the issue was. I reseated the blade with a jewelers screwdriver with the lever open, reclosed and the shave was great again. So for those who want to try the vintage twin blade injectors in a Hydro-Magic Schick, after the blade is seated, leave the lever in place.
