I am an experienced user of both injectors and Gem-style SE razors, but I’ve yet to take the plunge into artist club blade SE razors. So, I’m looking for some comments from members based on a comparison between the injector, Gem, and AC formats.
By way of further background, I get generally get great shaves from both my injector and Gem-style razors. I mostly favor the middle ground in terms of aggressiveness; the Schick Type G and I and the Gem 1912 are my reference points, though I also like the Ever Ready 1914 and 1924 when I want to up the aggression a bit. I’m always interested in expanding my shaving horizons, but I’ve been somewhat reluctant to enter the AC world, deterred primarily by both the cost and limited availability of AC blades.
From those of you with experience with all three formats, what can I expect, in comparison, from the AC format?
Thanks for your input, and here’s wishing you a new year that is smooth, comfortable and nick-free!
