I don't write much here, mostly reading, but this I have to share.
Been DE shaving for a little over a year now, accumulating a lot of razors and soaps and whatnot. A little while ago I won 3'rd place in a PIF contest here and got a lot of stuff, a bunch of great DE's, brushes, shaving creams, soaps and so on....
Among all this stuff was a Schick injector from "luvmysuper", I used this and it made me think, why would anyone choose cartridges over this.... I mean, the shaves are great and beyond.... Got me buying a couple more (type E and type G1) Don't get me wrong, my main thing is DE's, but one week a month maybe is injector time....
But then, today.... I put a GEM blade in a GEM featherweight I got from "jakespoppy" and that has got to be the best shave ever.... Close, no nicks, cuts, nothing.... just smooth, with The Body shop "macca root" shaving cream and a Muhle pure badger brush.
So now I am a collector of not just DE's but also SE's and injectors... cool, and all the creams I got started my AD's with that too....
Thing is...the only thing I haven't tried now is a straight razor, and they sure look mighty fine.....
Thank you to Badger and blade and congratulations with the new looks.
