I am so excited at the arrival of this Schick Type B - the Colonel’s repeater design inspired by automatic rifles in all it’s glory here in Devon!
Thete’s some plating loss on the head and the inner workings were heavily greased but the mechanism is perfect.
I followed the loading instructions in this video:
The old blade was a bit stiff to remove but the new Personna slid into place soon enough.
What an amazing thing and really cool that the modern blades are totally compatible.
How aggressive is this going to be - a lot I hope.
Of course the repeater cartridges are no longer made so loading a new blade demands is a hobbyist activity but man this is a beautiful and exciting thing.
