. I did my usual prep and 3 passes and was rewarded with the closest shave I can ever remember. I've never had such an outstanding result from the first use of a razor - I can hardly look at my Red tip or Slant at the moment as I feel so guilty...

BAn extraordinary shave today: It was the first time I've used the Injector, and it felt so different to the DE - the long handle and narrow head made it feel reminiscent of using a twin blade cartridge, but the way it felt on my face was just so smooth and effortless

Hi there,
Yeah, injectors are capable of providing a very nice shave. I agree with you about those feeling different on my face than a DE does. It's interesting using a very stiff blade like that, and it kinda reminds me of almost 'wiping the whiskers' away. Kinda like a squeegee feel to it sorta thing. Congrats on catching on to the technique so fast. Sometimes it can take a few shaves to figure out the angle and pressure needed.
I have one in my rotation, left over from my injector period when that was the only razor I used for many months. It's great for being easy to use shaving around the mustache I now have, and sometimes I'll use it for my whole shave as well.
