Thanks for the info! As I don't have any Chick blades I took out a Personna blade anyway.You have Cleary Damaged the Blade when its Tugging like that..You get a Tugging Blade in an Injector never continue..Change the blade..I would also recommend that you stick to a Chick blade until you get used to the Bunny..The Personna is less Forgiving..Another thing..That NOS Injector Key You are using there doesn't Fit the Bunny anywhere near..The Chinese Schick Injector Key Fits to a Tea..

Good Report..Glad you got Sorted..2nd shave with the Bunny
After tuesday's shave I let the skin come to rest and in consultation with Tom I made a slight change with the main spring which was a bit unevenly bent. Remember it's a Beta razor, so these things can happen. I loaded a Personna blade from Connaughtshaving, had a proper preparation and went at it.
Taking care to hold the razor at an almost 90 degrees angle and using as light a touch as I could manage I had a far better shave than tuesday. I guess then it was a combination of bad preparation, bad angle and bad blade. This on the other hand was way better. I feel I still have a bit of trouble to find the correct angle, but I'll get there. I felt that it was easy and comfortable to hold the razor in different ways for different angles of attack (up-down, down-up, left-right, right-left etc). I felt though that I needed to be aware of having clean hands to be sure of having a good grip on the handle. I think some knurling on the handle may come in handy.
The result after three passes was another BBS shave. The alum still gave a little more than average sting, but way less than with the first shave.
Thanks again, @twhite510 for making such a nice shaver and sending it around the world!
I'm curious as to how you like it!I am soooooo excited - I already have modern Personnas and NOS Dutch Schick as well as NOS Personna Platinum and PAL, but I have never yet tried the twin blades.
And the descriptions of the super efficient shave and the photos are making my mouth water
Thanks for your thorough and well presented write up, we'll compare notes...
You'd be welcome, except it's nothing like my legend.
Yeah, I had to change something to avoid copyright notices...You'd be welcome, except it's nothing like my legend.

Rejoice! The Bunny will come hopping back home to you one day...The Bunny is on its way! With tear stained eyes I waved it goodbye as it hopped out of the street. It should hop into Marcus' (@mjclark 's) door on next wednesday or thursday!
