    Sunday shave DEC 15-2019 Stick Schick injector and it is one of my favorite Schick injectors with a Japan twinII blade and it is sort like the Everready battery TV commercial "it lasts & lasts.......". It is a good daily driver IMO with a twin blade if that is what a fellow wants.

    Razor : Stick Schick injector theme L type -MFG 1973
    Blade : Schick twin II (26) mfg Japan
    Soap : Tabac
    Prep: Cold water rinse after each completed pass . Very enjoyable IMO.
    Brush : Yaqi tuxedo knot 24mm+ "Sagrada Familia"theme Barcelona Cathedral pillars.(been there beautiful & Awe)
    Preshave: Brush wash the face with CeraVe hand bar soap + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on beard area.
    Post shave : Razorock Emperor aftershave with witch hazel + Nivea balm for winter months.
    Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + minor irritation + no weepers = [​IMG]
