You can tell an engineer, but you can't tell him much.

I just stopped by to say that I'm glad you are enjoying your Schick shaves. They do a fine job.
I am not sure why they are not more popular. After all, the expensive, multi-bladed unmentionables sold in grocery stores look more like a Schick injector than any other vintage razor. If a younger shaver would look at a Schick clone and see the lower price of replacement blades, I would think he would snatch one up.
Maybe it is all marketing. Perhaps one of the following is needed to start the buying spree: 1.) A guy from a pawn shop does a few commercials with his Schick clone in his hands. 2.) Somebody starts an "Injector Shave Club", and mails a pack of blades and a Schick clone razor for a dollar. Then, every month, sends a box containing shave cream, more blades, and some buttwipes for a reasonable fee. 3.) Fuzzy hits a million views on his shave videos.

A yearly competition was sponsored by South Carolina Society of Professional Engineers. That is where I first encountered that saying. They had tee shirts with that printed on it.

Sheesh now someone tells me that explains a lot. Can I be the spokesman for the Injector club for men? I can act like I own a pawn shop.

When I lived in the Rocky Mountains, a friend accidentally discovered a disposable razor with a single-edge blade. He then realized one blade--and one edge--is the sweet spot for shaving. I smiled and responded, "Yep!" In wholehearted agreement.
