I bought a vintage Schick (Type J). LOVE it. So ... now I want to get one other injector. I am a minimalist and I am not looking to build a big collection. What would veterans advise? Some thoughts below on fairly obtainable options for me in Scotland/UK:
1) Supply. Lots of UK stockists. I like the all metal design and adjustable heads. But is this worth the significant extra cost?
2) Parker Adjustable. UK stockists forthcoming apparently and seems less expensive. Again I like the idea of adjustable settings. But is this too mild for most people? MANY reviews say so.
3) Stick to vintage Schick. If so, what would be a nice alternative to the J type? Is an adjustable worth the extra money? (Injectors seem less common in the UK so I would be at the mercy of the Bay).
4) PAL injectors. Seen quite a few on UK eBay. Do they shave well and will standard injector blades work with them (the head shape looks slightly different)?
Again, any advice welcome as I continue my Injector journey!
