Which injector?

[SUNA]

Good evening all!

I was thinking of trying shaving with an injector...but am unsure which one to go with. Can any of you injector shavers assist in recommending me a good razor. Blades too!

Thanks!

I personally recommend either the PAL Injecto-Matic or the Schick type I1 (see Schick history web site). I've gotten nothing but awesome shaves with these 2 using Fred's stores injector blades ($2.00 for 11 blades) and the PTFE (teflon) coated blades, item # 71990, from http://www.emsdiasum.com/microscopy/products/preparation/blades.aspx ($4.50 for 20 blades). They are the same blades, the Fred's and the ones at the web site. Made by Gem/Personna. Since you're in Canada, you won't find any Fred's stores.

Schick types E, G, I2, and J1 are all great in my experience, and you can almost certainly get one fairly cheap.

The Schick brand blades are good, but I can't tell you the best place to get them in Canada. Also any of the Personna rebrands. The ones from EMS that Gentsinstinct mentions are a good deal if you decide to buy in bulk.

The Schick Type L is pretty mild, and pretty plentiful.

Does anyone have some razors for sale? Need some blades too. I guess I missed out on the group buy.
