Sunday shave, today it's going to be my all faithful Stick Schick marathon injector with a Twin blade still giving myself excellent shaves. I like the feel of the ball at the end combined with the longer handle that Schick seems to have incorporated the longer handles in the later models for what ever reason. Great shave is the bottom line!
