Little too much fiddling for me though. Have a good day.
There's actually no fiddling with an injector. The squared center post acts as a stop for the blade, the only "fiddling" is ensuring it's well aligned.

I actually had mine more forward than the square center post for more exposure but still no more complicated or fiddling than Ken playing with his different hones etc. We all find what we enjoy and that's how it should be. Easily inserted and tightened down to shave. Took 2 seconds

Next round I'll do the same and set exposure a bit more aggressively.

Razor: Vintage Clauss Automatic Razor
Blade: Despined Gem
Brush: Scoville by Trotter Handcraft
Soap: 1508.5 Project - Haslinger Schafmilch Rasierseife
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: Proraso Green Splash
Fragrance: Guerlain Vetiver
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 967

Brought out the Clauss Automatic safety razor for a 2nd spin. It's probably the earliest Twist To Open Razor. The 1st outing took more blood than I had spilled since starting this shaving methods back in 2007ish including some divots that took way too long to heal. Survived with just 2-3 weepers that sealed quickly by shaves end. Happy to get a close shave with this piece of history (1906 Patent) that ended successfully. I have a bunch of razors but don't keep them around if I can't at least get a shave in with them from time to time. This makes the cut and glad it does. Boring video with more concentration than talking so you are forewarned. Fluffy Safety Shirt was used to prevent massive carnage and was effective. Video posted and YES I know I forgot to flip the calendar to July  Big Grin Have a great day guys !
