Wednesday night..
OCMM Treet D-1 AOS Badger The Body Shop Old formula wh AV Ice Blue
This was one of the best shaves I have gotten form the OCMM. I had over a two day growth. Not only did the razor mow it down I got as close to a BBS as I ever get. The old formula Body Shop Cream is one of the best ever made. Wish they had not stopped making it. All in all that was a wonderful late night shave.

Schick J1 Injector K-Mart blade (1) Made-Rite 500 PB Brush KMF Key Lime Cream Vi-Jon Ivy Club Spice
I've been using my Gems exclusively for such a long time now (over a month) that I forgot what a quick, smooth, and comfortable shave I get with the Schick injector. I inherited the razor from my dad and I remember watching him shave with it every Saturday morning back when I was a kid in the early '60s. Hence, I like using it on the weekends to honor his memory. The blades I'm using are something of a mystery. My dad got them from K-Mart probably sometime during the '90s and I found them in an unopened package among his shave gear. I could have sworn that the package indicated that they were made in China but the injector looks far more like the current production from ASR - the flimsy white plastic container that won't load the blade unless you wiggle the key around. Whoever made them, they're very sharp and smooth and deliver a fantastic shave. ______________ Jeff

1912 Treet BlueStar D-2 Arko SS AOS Badger WH British Sterling AS
I love the baton handle Treet. It looks like a GEM but has a more clog pruf style safety bar. Not the open comb of the regular 1912.

love these injectors. Nice clean fast shave. Not as much fun to use as a good SE but hey they do get the job done well.
