Awesome!
Awesome!
HOWEVER, I am sad to say that it appears that the USPS HAS LOST THE FREAKING PACKAGE!!!!

Well, I'm getting a refund on the lost razor. I then went out this afternoon to a nice antique store in the area and found this Type G for $6.00!!! It's all scrubbed and the head soaked in alcohol to try out tomorrow.
The first injector I ever used was a G Model and it's a great all 'rounder. It shaves great! Just remember: no pressure.

Thanks for the feedback. I am really looking forward to seeing how it shaves.

Ah, another question. As I go down this rabbit hole, what are your thoughts on the Schick adjustable injector razor? I believe it is the Type M.
Yes, the Type M is the adjustable. In fact, there are three versions of the Type M, and the most sought-after is the Protector. It has a sliding switch below the head that moves the safety bar up and down to cover and uncover the blade when traveling or to protect against inadvertent cuts by people who handle an unfamiliar razor. The only problem is to remember to uncover the blade when you shave with it (as I have a couple of times).

Yes. Actually, I've never had a bad shave from any Injector, unless it had been damaged. The Adjustable razor is just as good as any of the Schicks--the only difference is that it is...adjustable. That allows you to try many of the other Schicks with one razor.

Many thanks for the feedback. This Type G was an excellent shave. another rabbit hole to go down!!
I also tripped and fell into the rabbit hole recently. I've come to appreciate the injector's shave. Currently have an E-2, a J-1, and an M-2. I have to say that the E is probably my favorite of the 3.
The E's are amazing.

I'll have to check out all of this out. Are there any "modern" injector razors still being made?

Thank you!
I got this in today. I've read good reviews on them. Does anyone here have experience with these Ted Pella blades?
There are only two current manufacturers of Injector blades, Schick and Personna. The Ted Pellas are re-branded Personnas and are made in the US. Schicks are made in China, and I prefer them over the Personnas. You can find many NOS brands of Injector blades on eBay.
You forgot the Schick Proline B-20 which is purportedly made in Japan.
