eBARBERSHOP Schick-Type Injector Razor
Sure seems to be well liked according to the reviews on the site!I recommend it to a friend of mine who wanted a new injector razor. Hope it is a good quality razor.
I hope I haven't made a mistake. LOLSure seems to be well liked according to the reviews on the site!
It seems to me @xxvaleria liked them.... But I'm old and could be completely mistaken. Let me know what you think, as I have wondered about them. Of course, then my lovely War Department would just shoot me for buying one.I hope I haven't made a mistake. LOL
I didn't buy it for myself and never tried one before.It seems to me @xxvaleria liked them.... But I'm old and could be completely mistaken. Let me know what you think, as I have wondered about them. Of course, then my lovely War Department would just shoot me for buying one.
There is a new injector you can buy;I didn't buy it for myself and never tried one before.
A friend of mine ordered it based on my recommendation..he doesn't like used razors so this is was the only unused injector razor on the market.
Hmm ... This is not a good news.This Type L clone has been around for a while and many have complained that it was a mediocre razor at best and a bad razor at worst. The original Type L itself was not the best injector Schick came out with. I think the problem with this clone is that there are many genuine Type L out there that are going for the same or lower price. This was not the situation with their original Type O clone, where the originals were unobtaniums and if one came up you are looking at a car payment to get one.
If this is the vendor that I also bought from (and who no longer sells them), I had a similar problem with the stops. In my case they were cast with a slope and the blades rode up over time, leaving a large and uneven gap. I was able to file the faces of the stops to vertical and was happy with the shaves after that.That’s the clone of the Schick L model. I bought one last year from another vendor (not ebarbershop) and all it did was nick me up. After a dozen or so shaves I realized that the problem was caused by the blade stops. I tried “adjusting” them, but no success. I threw out the razor early this year.
It is possible that I had the one bad razor from the lot. Hopefully ebarbershop has a different manufacturer than the vendor I purchased from.

Thanks for chiming in!I have never tried the eBarbershop Type L clone and can't comment on them. I do have the Type O clone, and think it is excellent. I also have an original Type O, and can't tell the difference.
At one time, there was a Chinese piece of junk called "National Campus" which was a Type L clone and was universally condemned by all who tried them, but I don't know if that is the model that eBarbershop is selling. PAA also sold a Type L clone a few months ago, but I don't see it on their web site any more.
There are many unboxed and sealed Schick Injectors available on eBay. I have around fifteen of my own. Some are real bargains.I didn't buy it for myself and never tried one before.
