Favorite Injector Blade?

What is your favorite injector blade? And why?

[doug1066]

Current production Schick Injector blades. They are easily available from Amazon and they give a very close, comfortable shave.

Favorite overall is the vintage Personna 74. Why? Because they're Personna 74's! Favorite easy to obtain is the Chinese Schick, I finished shave #4 a few minutes ago with one in an E3 and it's still going strong.

Chinese made Schick is outstanding.

The current Schick are good, but I like the vintage Gillette Platinum Plus blades I bought a month ago on ebay much more. I am sure the Plus Platinum Schick vintage would be very good also but I have not come across any yet.

I have the NOS Plus Platinum Schick injector blades stashed, they are quite nice . Good luck on finding more of them on the bay at anything resembling a reasonable price. :crying:

Hoosier, would you have a link for the Chinese Schick, is it Amazon?, I'm getting Injector AD... :blink:

Yep, Amazon, drugstore.com and hocks.com have them online. I've also found them at independently owned drugstores in my area.

Thanks, have you tried the Injectors from Ted Pella or EMS?

I like the results and longevity that I get out of the CVS Injectors (Personnas).

[HoosierTrooper]

Thanks, have you tried the Injectors from Ted Pella or EMS?

Yes, I have some from both places, plus some from CVS and Personna labelled. I can't tell any difference between them and since they're all made by the same company, Personna/ASR, probably the same blade. I do like the Chinese Schicks better, and the Schick metal dispenser is much better than the plastic Personna.

Hoosier, Thanks for your help.

I was lucky enough to obtain a small stash of vintage NOS Dutch Platinium blades, and they shave rings around all the modern injector blades I tried (although the Chinese ones are indeed very good).

Actually, I have yet to try a bad Injector blade.
