AS tbd (headed past the Merz in Marshall Fields in a little while)

First go with an injector today. A decent shave (honestly did a final pass with a Blue Tip) but one that I'll need to work on. As with my 1912 shave, I don't think that these razors are something an everyday DE user can pick up casually for a day and get a good shave. Definitely think that, with some work on adapting my technique, I'll be able to get some really good shaves out of this.
