I'm not sure why it doesn't seem to lock, I have a 1937 patent, Type E (I think) Schick Injector with non-seamed bakelite handle, but the spring does not seem to close all the way, why? I just got it yesterday, so I don't know much about them, but it seems where it is set lets the lower part of what holds the blade in place hang down, I think this is for cleaning it only?but when I bring the spring around to close it, I see one side of the clip/retainer has a bevel to it like it shoudl click in from that side, but I can not get it to go. what would be causing this?
Also, as a side question, is Brass-o safe to use for cleaning this? Or is something else preferable?
