Why a Clone rather than the original ? I have heard it is not as good either.Today was a little different:
For the first go in years with an injector razor, the shave wasn't awful. My lather was its usual slickness and the first WTG pass was smooth and uneventful, but things went downhill on the subsequent XTG/ATG pass, as I burned myself a little bit under my nose and gave myself a little nick to go with the burn. Overall, a pretty close shave, but I'm not thrilled yet. I'm calling today's shave a 6/10 and looking forward to trying the razor again with one of the Chinese Schick I ordered the other day.
- Razor: Type L clone

- Cream: C.O. Bigelow
Mostly because I wanted a new razor rather than a used vintage model and didn't want to pay the insane prices I was seeing for NOS razors. It's built well and seems to shave fine; my subpar shave was probably user error rather than the razor, although the blade could be a little rough as well.Why a Clone rather than the original ?
