Tabac!!

The PAL isn't bad, it just isn't as brainless as the Schick.

Nice first run with the Pal. Chris, stay hydrated

Thanks Dave!

I knew I had smarts!

 

[MilkCrate]

Good job with the PAL!

I tried John's PAL a long while back...I think it was John's PAL...either way...it didn't sit well with me. But I don't have the best technique either.

As I told Chris in a PM, other people shave with my razors more that I do.

Gotta love the Tabac.

No you dont.

I think I’ll use the Schick tomorrow for immediate comparison!

Gotta love the Tabac.

Indeed!

 

[The Monkey]

Indeed!

Chris you better defunk the razors before sending them back!

Chris you better defunk the razors before sending them back!

Don’t worry, if I use Tabac with each one, any germs or grossness wouldn’t dare stick around in the face of such classic greatness!

I’ll be sure to clog em up good for the trip home!

Shave #187 (322 Open Blade Shaves) of 2019:

Gear: Schick Adjustable injector, Schick blade, TSC 1st Anniversary badger brush, SV 70th soap, generic witch hazel, Thayer’s Medicated, and SV 70th AS to finish!

Really nice, indeed mindless, shave with the Schick Adjustable today!

So, having used the PAL yesterday, I wanted to also get a first impressions in on the Schick in right away. The PAL definitely has a touch more blade feel, particularly as it gets opened up more on the setting. I started today’s shave with the Schick on what I think it was the 1 setting, but after a couple strokes, opened it right up to the 3 setting and left it there. For a mild as it was still, it sure found the stubble just fine! I even went nearly directly ATG with no issues, pretty remarkable for me. I’m pretty stoked from the first two shaves on these two! Great razors! Finished up with the last of my SV 70th AS sample and a few spirit of Zarahoff Pour Homme, and it was out the door to services!

Definitely at least have to mow later, between VBS prep and heading to a friend’s house for dinner. Supposed to stay mid 80s today though, so at least it shouldn’t be too hot.

Have a blessed Sunday all!

 

[Dave in KY]

Nice stuff Chris

 

[SteveChuckFrank]

At this point an injector is the one thing I don’t have. I might have to fix that soon!

 

[GearNoir]

Nice stuff Chris

Go for at least 1!

Good write-up. The Schicks are just so brainless a shave.

Thanks John! Yes, that was almost too easy to be true!

Thanks John! Yes, that was almost too easy to be true!

Now you can see why folks who come from the Schicks complain about the PAL.

To be honest I can't beleive that the injector didnt take over the world as opposed to the cart razors.
