Best yet and no irritation at all ... one nick but that was my fault with technique - did struggle a bit getting a good lather with the brush soaked in cold water.
SEptemper is a interesting Thread, chance to take out my larger collection of razors now and give them a whirl, Seen a Weck razor today and that's a rarity and I guess a excellent razor from some of the experienced hands also have mentioned.
This Schick G injector is a rarity, it has a G1 handle with a G spring and was MFG in Canada 1937 pat base plate at the Niagara Falls Schick plant before it closed(they claim no G types where made in Canada?).

Not quite as good as yesterday - I'm hoping that it was using the blade an extra time than I normally do. Still fantastically smooth but very slight irritation with the alum block
Terrific shave this morning, after a couple days of traveling for work and using a cart razor.
Hot shower, then....

Maybe the best shave I have had in a month. Almost no burn on the splash, worked very hard for negative pressure and enjoy being back on this blade and will make sure to swap it at 3 shaves. Seems to be my best shaves.

The RazoRock SLOC is a delightful razor. Efficient and easy to use. No nicks or blood.
If I had only the RR SLOC, I would be a happy shaver.
Highly recommended, in my opinion.
As an aside, the Personna Med Prep is a really good blade.
