Wed 14th Dec

RazoRock Plissoft 22mm
Faena Sandalwood soap
PAL Golden Injecto Matic
Schick NOS S/S [ 4 - Dutch ]
Alum Rub/Rinse off
Myrsol Antesol A/S Lotion

Still getting used to a Schick E2, and after a very close but harsh Shave yesterday moved on to A PAL Golden Injecto Matic. I have used this a lot, and due to the shape of the handle I find it very easy to control on both downward and upward strokes.
The PAL like the E2 was fitted with a "Dutch Danglie", but unlike the E2 the shave was smooth and comfortable which I like. It would be a mistake to think that a smooth and comfortable shave cannot be effective , as IMHO todays shave was superior to that provided by the Schick. Early days yet, but currently the PAL is heading the Schick
in the favourite Injector Stakes.

1969 Black Beauty w/ Kai. Haven't used this sweetie pie for quite awhile. A great effortless shave as she does all the work with that weighted head.

I had tried my Aristocrat US 1934 with an Astra green in a while ago.... a bit too mild for my taste.

I've tried it again with a Feather in... excellent, simply excellent...
