I have two of these. I think I like the shave with them more then with the Shicks. They both have the shorter flat handle. Both sets have the instructions with them. Anyone else use these? Fuzzy Attachments:

About a year ago I was looking at them on line. They were priced reasonably because everyone wanted a Schick. Maybe I should have got one.

I recommend them. Really nice mild shavers.

I have a nice adjustable PAL. For some reason the first couple of shaves feel a bit more harsh than in Schicks, but it sure is fun to play with the little adjustor dial and see the safety bar move in and out.

I've got an Injecto-matic and an adjustable, like them both but I think the Schick adjustable is a little better.

I still have very few of these new fangled modern razors! I am a Schick E guy for sure - fabulous razor with a Schick blade. They rock!! But, I feel guilty with the injectors - don't know why - it feels like cheating!!! ( My therapist has yet to get to this topic with me! ) I can be no help here - but I will start to pay attention to these fancy new razors yall are talkin bout!

Lol. They have their place. I do not ever rate them as high on my list as a good 1912 though. They would be on the bottom of the list actually. Still handy to have around.

I have one of these. Bought it NOS never used with the little red blade filler still in the razor. Put a Schick blade in it and used it once. It was okay but I prefer my Schick G1's and E3 to the PAL. Attachments:

Rocketman's post about the timeline of the PAL razors got me interested in digging mine out and using them a little more often. Here's a few shots of my meager PAL collection. The Injecto-matic with the dark handle was made in Great Britain, and has a few notable differences between the other one that was made in the U.S. of A. The angle of the British one's frame is more severe than the American version. It wouldn't stand on it's side without a little help from the adjustable. And the plastic part of the handle extends a lot further up the neck. The handle is also thinner and tapered differently at the bottom. I don't know if the differences are due to being made in different countries, or if it's due to being made in different years. The guard bars are also different. The British one has parallel grooves similar to the Schicks, while the American one has vertical grooves. I like the British one a little better, I can't really say that it shaves better, I just prefer it for some reason.

Yes it is. the underside of the head is made different from yours. It is from a Deluxe set. I never have used it.

Got a NOS British Injectomatic set yesterday. The handle has an awesome grip and the shave feels mild but is very very long lasting for me. And those carbon steel blades are like a beauty treatment!
