Yeah, I know, boring

 

I'm a night shaver and I when I wake up in the morning and my face is still super smooth, I know I got a great shave the night before. That's what I'm getting with this injector. I'm glad this theme week came around, or it might have been months before I tried this thing. Now I need to try my GEM soon to see what that's all about.

 

.....nothing boring about getting great shaves from a pre-WWII razor....Kind-a exciting....Course it's ultra-modern and futuristic compared to your avatar...

 

Yo got that right, Lloyd!

 

And great shaves it gives! Somewhere in the early 80's I used an injector for some time, but the results were not very good, probably because I didn't adjust the amount of pressure I used. So after a while i went back to the Gillette Sensor cartridges. How little did I know...

And yes, compared to the prehistoric razor in my avator an injector is completely futuristic. Here are some pictures of the rzaor, hope you'll like them...

 

Sure did!

 

Ever tried it?

 

Friday & saturday:

Both Schick G1 /w personna blade (#4 and #5) & both BBS

 

Ha, sadly I don't have it, it's museum material. Besides, it looks like it needs a little honing

 

Monday: Schick E2, fresh Schick blade
Tuesday: Schick E2, Schick blade
Wednesday: Schick E2, Schick blade
Thursday: Schick E2, Schick blade
Friday: Schick E2, Schick blade
Saturday: Schick E2, Schick blade

No surprises today

 

We got some perfect guys right here to hone that baby up....then we need to start mailing it around....lol

I think I remember Stingraysrock/Jeff was using one of those but I believe he Pif'ed it to someone... Yo Jeff.....how did the 'Old Girl' shave?? How did it compare to the 'Obsidian' stone ??

 

Alternated between a Presonna and hydromagic injectors and had great shaves all week. Had a great cold water shave with the Hydromagic this morning

The Hydromagic that I won on the bay arrived yesterday. Cleaned it up last night and decided to take it for a shave this morning.
The hydromagic gave a close smooth shave. Got a bit of burn but that is my fault not the razors. I got a little too aggressive attaining a BBS. I know no pressure.

 

Friday it was the Schick E model and Schick blade, once again.
And, once again, another great shave.
I could tell at the end of the third pass, though, the blade was starting to give up the ghost.
I did use it today to touch up my str8 shave.
