Of all the Injectors I've ever seen I only have eyes for one model. I think it's the model F. It would be all metal. Two pieces, head and handle riveted together. Is that the model F?
What would one in good condition cost?
Frankly I hope they're expensive. I need another razor with unique blades about the same way I want a hole in my head.

The gold handled one? F is a cast alloy handle - this board has the Schick Identification page stickied at the top. You can take a cruise through there and determine your model. The D can be pricey - but I have seen one in the wild - didn't buy the darn thing - one of my thrifty Scottish moments!! The F identified in the sticky, I have never seen personally. Could be hard to find - not sure.

Hmmm, the plot thickens...
I thought it was an "F". I'll need to get back.
FWIW, I've seen them on the 'bay (rarely) for incredible prices, that's why I asked. But I'll get back.

I think you're looking for the "F". A brass alloy (?) head riveted onto an aluminum alloy handle. It began production in 1940, but WWII metal shortages put a stop to that in 1941 or so. According to Waits, the D was only produced in 1935. Here's pictures of the D (left) and F (right) side by side: I haven't given the "F" a proper cleanup yet. I have a backlog. They both had quite limited production compared to the "E" model that they sandwiched, and the prices you see on eBay or elsewhere will reflect that if you have a knowledgeable seller and/or bidders.

Those are both wonderful Schicks. Thanks for putting the two side by side.
I imagine that F will clean up nicely when you get to it. Great case too.
