Thanks.
It all started with a gift of a G1 from Mike @mpf9ret . Unfortunately the handle broke. So I asked Jayaruh, a US forum member for a solution. This is what happened next.
Of all the ER/Gem SE Razors that I have used, this Chrome Plated one often called a "Streamline " is the most aggressive.Master it and delivers superb Shaves, and before the Arrival of AC/ SE razors was the the one I used for a Special Occassion.

Supply V2 2 dot + Schick Proline B20 #2 = Stunning shave.
I find with the Supply the first WTG pass doesn't really mow down the stubble but the subsequent XTG & ATG passes result in a finish similar to my Gem MMOC.
So next time I'm just gonna do the XTG & ATG passes to see if 2 passes yield the same results.
Anyhow's, I'm really clicking with this Injector and yet another SE to wax lyrical over.

It has been a good few years since I shaved with a Valet ...
I already expelled a pretty comprehensive collection of AutoStrop from my collection, keeping only the pre-Valet 7 O'Clock and I think I now remember why - for the most part you have to use a Feather, which is not a patch on the GEM blades. I'm already looking forward to shaving with something else.
