Have you tried your supply SE with a cut down DE blade......works very well indeedHere is my new tool at the bottom.
I shaved with it tonight with a new Plosilver iridium snapped in half and I got BBS in 2 passes, WTG, XTG and corrections. I did cut myself though on the bottom lip with the tubs as I didn't remove them to make loading easier. This happened because my lather was a good consistency one and it got the teeth clogged. I brought it close to my lips to blow, but it was toooo close.
It does like a light consistency lather in order not to get clogged. I do like it and it's going on the rotation. The difference between this and the CC is negligible and I would say it's more visual than anything else. So if anyone is contemplating buying the thing, you might prefer getting the CC as it's way cheaper.
Quality wise it's better polished than my CC, the only quality issue, I found some residual SS shaving on one tooth which I removed with a small screw driver.
+1If I may ask where did you get it ??
The Rocnel I bought from Your shaving.com Spain.If I may ask where did you get it ??
I've used all three plates with it and all ok.I haven't tried the SP with half a blade yet, but I hear it works well, only the mild plate has to be used with it.
I've shaved with the middle and aggressive plates on a new Shick injector. The middle plate is for me the best compromise, even if the aggressive one has a better cutting feeling. It bit me, so I would assume a less rigid DR blade will rip me apart on middle and aggressive plates, but I'll try.I've used all three plates with it and all ok.
I hope it works well for you.I've shaved with the middle and aggressive plates on a new Shick injector.

For today I have to give the Rockwell on plate 4 its maiden trip around my face.
We'll surely if it's only using half a double edge blade it is just an edge!!!In My Books a Razor that Uses a DE Blade is a DE..

Well..Sure..But its a DE Blade Razor..I Could Tape Up One Side of A DE & Say the Same thing..We'll surely if it's only using half a double edge blade it is just an edge!!!
Using logic like that Billy I can see I'm flogging a dead horseWell..Sure..But its a DE Blade Razor..I Could Tape Up One Side of A DE & Say the Same thing..

Dunno Buddy..I Have Never Used that Injector..Put a DE Blade in Most Injectors & the Dynamics would be Off by a Mile Due to Blade Thickness for One..Using logic like that Billy I can see I'm flogging a dead horse
Here's a question for you......when I used a cut down Polsilver stainless blade in my Supply SE why do you think it gave me a better shave than I got with the more rigid chick blade, it supprised me to be honest. I can understand maybe getting a better shave from a cut down Feather pro but I can not understand why the cut down DE would be as good as it was....
It worked really well in my E2 as well, strainge but true.Dunno Buddy..I Have Never Used that Injector..Put a DE Blade in Most Injectors & the Dynamics would be Off by a Mile Due to Blade Thickness for One..
