I think the Proline, Chinese Schick, and Personna are the only ones out there. I believe Supply blades are rebranded Personnas, but my memory fails me in surprising ways. You can also get a pack of vintage Personna 74 blades on Amazon if the guy hasn't sold out, not worth the price IMO. Something about milage.

@bentheduck Thank you sir. I am writing this as I am hydrating. FYI.
This will be a new facet of the hobby for me.

Phenomenal. Stronk work, Fluffy! Dehydration is the enemy.

Schick Prolines letter "B" are another option NOT "P's" as they are AC style for razors such as the Vector.

Good blades, IME.

Good blades, IME.

Good but 2nd fiddle to the Schick at least for me

Sounds like a barrel of monkeys in the call last night!

Glad you got your hands on an Schick stick injector! Hope it suits!

 

[MilkCrate]

Nice score!

First Injector shave went very well. Posted up a video. Liked the CBL Nordic Spice. Paired it with Brandy Spice AS. I can see why these razors get the love from those who have them.
Hope everyone had a good day. C'mon Friday.

Shave Number 2 on the Stick Schick.
1508.5 CBLInsurgent rolls on like Grant thru Vicksburg.
This shave went quicker. Getting used to the angles needed with this razor. Still plenty sharp and smooth.
OS AS to finish. Sitting at 5 Guys waiting for our Bacon Cheeseburgers.
Welcome to the weekend boys.

Mmm that sounds great! Excellent way to kick off the weekend!

 

[MilkCrate]

Nice start to the weekend!

Saturday got hectic and wouldn't you know it. I did not shave. Sunday shave decided I needed to use a razor specifically ground and honed to deal with my heavy beard.
Although I don't have sensitive skin. I figured who doesn't like a little pampering.
1508.5 Goes on as usual. Nice comfortable shave. Cause this razor just seems to fit my face.

Monday..... well it was a Monday. Made a long wasted trip up to Pennsyltuky to get a drivers door for my wife's car. One of her patients at work. Ran into her car and messed it up.
Let's just say I am more mad at myself for thinking that I could fit the damn thing into the back seat of her car. Measured and was sure I could get the angles right and make it work.
But I failed to take into account the thickness/depth of the door. And couldn't fit it in by about an F*%$#& inch. Oh well now have to go back in the morning. And then try and swap it out.
Take two on the Robeson. Since yesterday's shave was so nice. Hope you guys faired better today.

Hope the missus wasn’t in the car when it was hit!

Door: 1; Ken: 0

I’m surprised he didn’t fold it in half

No Chris she was inside the office and the lady backed into her car out in the parking lot. It's kind of tight the way the lot is. But I can get my truck in there and out. And it's a heck of a lot longer than 90% of the cars on the road. So that's not an good excuse in my book (small lot) Now my Monday and Tuesday are jacked up. Cause a long time ago we decided that drivers test did not need to be too tough.

Or take the dump truck....

If it was an older car. Without a window frame. Or they (window frame) on some models were a separate piece bolted into the bottom of the door. I would have been golden.
