Christy in the Post.....
[/URL][/img]
I received the USA Made Christy Single Edge Razor through the post yesterday......
Paul was kind enough to send this to me to see if I liked it.....Paul said that if I liked it that I was welcome to hold onto it........Well, what can I say......Thank you Paul for a wonderful gift......I like it very much.....:icon_razz:
The Christy was designed to use a Proprietor Blade that's no longer available ....See Pauls, link below........Schick lovers beware.......:heart:....Some serious Schick Bashing going on here.....:icon_razz:

I had my first shave with the Christy today with one of a batch of NOS Dutch Made Schick Platinum Injector Blades that I received through the post this morning.....
I offered the Christy/NOS Blade combination four days whiskers to cut down......
And I must say this unorthodox Razor and Blade Combo is a serious Whisker Whacking Instrument of War.......:icon_mrgreen:
I wouldn't say that this is an aggressive razor nor would I say falls into the camp of being a mild razor......I cant pigeon hole this razor and blade combination as I found that its so adaptable to a fast change of pace from feeling mild towards feeling quite aggressive with short chopping motions when shaving those hard to reach nooks and crannies and against the grain.........The Christy is so light and manoeuvrable whilst having a sure footed feeling about it.......The NOS Dutch Made Schick Platinum Injector Blade is so sharp I had the feeling that I was shaving with a Precision Made Surgical Instrument....:s
On my fourth and final pass, I was using a fair amount of pressure.....The Christy's head and comb is so smooth that there is almost a vacuum between it and my face.... The NOS Dutch Made Schick Platinum Injector Blade is dangerously sharp, but offers a warning when being provoked stopping any Blood Being Spilled........
I must declare an All over BBS Result with the Christy/NOS Blade combination ...There is no hint of any irritation and I feel my face and skin to be smooth, youthful and rejuvenated ...:blush:
And I must say.......Thanks to Paul for sending me this, somewhat, Eccentric and Unorthodox Razor as a present that's proved itself to be as efficient as any Schick Injector ....The Christy NOS Blade Combination for all its SIMPLICITY is a Serious Whisker Whacking Instrument of War.......:icon_razz:
