Thursday Night 6/21/17 GEM 1912, love chrome look and handle on this. the 1912 patent, different years and types makes my brain hurt, any idea on the year this was made? it is GEM

 

Wow that Dammy fits great among all that fancy stuff. Veddy nice.

Great setup. I have yet to use the Fat. On my list.

I love these. It is a good use for the old blades. Even if not shave ready they really work well. I buy cigars often that these will cut too. With this one being user grade I sm not as worried about losing it.

The time lines are beyond me. @Bird Lives is usually better at that. Beautiful GEM !!

 

G-model Injectors are smooth shavers. I've got mine loaded with a vintage Personna Chrome Comfort Coated blade and it's just starting to lose it's edge after ten shaves. I notice it mainly when I'm doing an atg pass, think I"ll swap it out tomorrow morning for a Chinese Schick blade.

Schick G4 today. Great shaving razor. The Musgo Real did great face lathered with the Semogue 208. Adidas Pulse is not a bad modern AS.

Prep: warm water and Cube preshave soap
Blade: Chick (1)
Razor: Schick Repeating Razor model A
Soap: Route 66 Sweeney Todd
Brush: Clint 64 custom aluminum handle with TGN synthetic knot
Post: Razor Rock Alum

Well this is my first time using this razor. Compared to my other repeating razors (B1 and C3), this seems to be the most aggressive of the 3. I only did one pass WTG to try it out tonight. I got a couple of weepers but the alum cleared that up. Although aggressive it shaved smoothly, just had to be careful of my angle because the head is round and not squared off like most injector razors. That may be why I got a couple of weepers on my neck. All went fairly smooth and for 1 pass gave me a decent shave. I finished off with a rub down with my Alum block and rinsed with cold water. I'm going to reserve judgment till my next shave with it. All in all it preformed well and I'm happy with it for it's first shave. I'm just going to have to keep a better eye on my shaving angle next time.

Stirling Syn. 26mm
Stirling Baker Street soap
Schick "Type O" Clone
Schick S/S Twin- Japan [ 11 ]
Tuff Green A/S Lotion

Today using a Schick "O" clone was a complete contrast to yesterday when I used an E2 . Rather chalk and cheese as one was aggressive the other might be called mild yet it is extremely efficient. Well worth a try for those who reside in USA, as they do not ship to UK, and I got mine from a fellow Shaver. Just has to be the perfect Razor for those who have a sensitive skin, as it is so forgiving yet delivers superb quality Shaves with ease.

Pre: Cold water face wash
Brush: Steven_jagger Zebrano Wood 24mm ST
Soap: Tabula Rasa Light Cream
Razor: Schick L1
Blade: Chick
Post: Cold water rinse, Floid Black ASL

At less than 23 hours since my last shave the L1 still took three passes to get something resembling a ccs.
The S_J Brush is a lovely little thing and a pleasure to use. Steven is a very talented craftsman and fulfilled my remit beautifully.
Have a great weekend everyone.

 

The Schick O clone is a great razor for everyday use. It is mild with a standard blade and not so mild with a twin. The O makes for a smooth and comfortable shave every time. The shave is similar to the Schick J. I bought mine back in November 2017 and I I’m glad I did. It’s a nice addition to my collection of injectors.

Lather catcher today. Soap is Haslinger. Veddy nice....

 

I just bought a Schick Injector E model off Ebay for $15.49, should be here by next Friday. It's a hydromatic too. I"ll post pictures when it arrives.

Hydromatic eh.... that's a 4-speed right ?

 

You mean a early E2 that opens? Cool. That is a lot different ftom the Hydro-Magic which did not come along until later. It had a lever to loosen the head to clean without touching the head or blade.

 

Yup, that's it. Is it going to be much more aggressive than my G model, I've heard that it can be but just wanted to know your opinion on the two razors since you have used them more than I have.

Oop's, I meant Hydromagic. I do have a 400 Hydromatic in my 87 Chevy truck.

And it's a 3-speed, 4-speed would be a 700R-4.
