First use of a NOS Personna Injector II Floating Head with Personna II Twin Blade blades.

I was pleased with the shave. Definitely have to learn a bit. I don't find the floating head to do much and when I tried to force it to I got a nick.

I've also heard VERY good things about the Japanese Schick II blades and hope to try them in this soon.

Overall nice shave and VERY close and minimal irritation.

I always get a mixture of glee and guilt when I crack open a package like this that has been sitting sealed since the 70's!
