Greetings Tuesday 17th September 2013 Prep: Shower Razor: Schick L1 Injector Blade: Gillette Platinum Plus NOS Brush: Omega 39 Boar Soap: Cella Aftershave: Astral Cream (light) An ultra close shave but at a price... three small weepers and a tiny bit of tenderness on my neck. These blades which were given to me buy an extremely kind member are just so sharp and unforgiving despite the fact that I used it in my mildest injector. I suspect the second and subsequent shaves with this blade will be a little more forgiving. Regards Dick.

Greetings Thursday 19th September 2013 Prep: Shower Razor: PAL Injectomatic Blade: Personna Stainless Coated Brush: Vulfix 406 Boar Cream: Body Shop Maca Root Aftershave: Astral Cream (light) A less than perfect shave by some measure, super close but with collateral damage; two weepers and a nick on my bottom lip that just would not stop bleeding. I had forgotten that a PAL is not a forgiving injector like most Schicks and went at it without due care. I have been reminded! Regards Dick.

Greetings Saturday 21st September 2013 Prep: Shower Razor: GEM OCMM Blade: GEM Blue Star Carbon Brush: Semogue 830 Boar Soap: Cella Aftershave: Astral Cream (light) The first shave with a new Blue Star carbon blade in the OCMM is for the me as good as wet shaving can get! After a week of using nothing but injectors and some wonderful shaves, the OCMM really stands out above all the competition. Of course like everything in traditional shaving your experiences may differ from mine. Regards Dick.

Schick "C", Schick Chinese blade Semogue 1305 boar brush Proraso green cream Thayers witch hazel Shea butter Booster Mosswood AS The "C" model is different than the newer injectors, getting the correct blade angle took a couple of passes and the rounded teeth make it so you have to concentrate on keeping the correct angle. I've waited quite a while to use this razor and it didnt disappoint, very smooth shave!!
