Schick Repeating Razor Owners Club (SRROC)

There's three people on this page who own a C3 and I for the life of me can't find one.....

 

Oh, the irony of this post spilling over to the next page...

 

Just beautiful kd!
and I agree with a great deal of your comments. I own one repeater, a C1. After just a half dozen shaves with in since I purchased it last July, I spent a full month with it in January. I now use it primarily as my regular travel razor for obvious reasons.

I also agree with the low center of gravity (heavy handle, slippery as well, when soapy and wet.) but I use it to my advantage by holding it almost at the bottom of the handle where the weight will obviously tend to have gravity drop the head down. Like many shavers, I'm prone to using too much pressure. I focus on letting gravity just do its job while I keep the head nearly flat on my beard and just guide it around my face. I also reverse the grip (hold the top of the square body) for the ATG pass and the weight provides all I need to pull through the stroke with no pressure.

YMMV, of course.

And the design as you say, was so unique for its day, especially the Cs as they well depicted the Art Deco style of that era.

 

Guys if anyone is looking for a C razor (not sure of the # 1,2or3) there's one for sale for about $20.00 on fleabay. Greg

 

Gee thanks Always love more competition.

 

Sorry better keep my mouth shut.

 

Lovely Collection..

Billy..

 

Shhh, maybe nobody noticed...

 

Too late!

 

The C2 (closed comb) might just be a better shave than the 3. Definitely as good as...

 

Great collection man!

 

Just wanted to say I put you on the members list... #20!

 

Thank you. And the list grows.

 

Rocked another perfect shave today with the B1.

 

I would like to join, brothers.

 

You are in brother! Welcome #21!

 

My C1 arrived and now I'm proud to have all 3 C type razors! I only need to find the elusive silver B with the cap to finish this set! Anyway here are the sisters!

 

Looking like Ft. Knox there!

 

Mike
Those are some real beauties.

I like a lot

 

I have a Type C on the way, It's an open comb.

Will it load with newer style blades?
