The Single Edge Gang

Thanks  whiteboy_cannon,
Yes Brian, They are in really good shape. I keep my finger in front of the Handle so the lid does not hit it. Had my First shave with one today and it was GREAT! I was a little Leary at first but after the first pass I was in Like Flint. lol

Well, today's initial plan was thrown out the window. Received a new razor in the mail yesterday and just had to try it today. It happened to be a DE so I skipped my first SE shave for the month of September, almost went the whole way with only single edges, they are what I primarily use anyways so they didn't mind taking a rest for a day

What was your new DE if you don't mind me asking?

The open comb Bakelite Slant by PAA

That's so funny whiteboy_cannon! I cheated on SEptember with the same razor. I got mine about a week ago. It's my first slant and first plastic razor. It's a fun little razor, I like it!

Razor: Personna Injector w/ Ted Pella blade
Lather: Italian Barber Amici
Brush: Frank Synthetic Silvertip

Decided to give the Ted Pella (personna) injector blades another go. They tend to be rough to me, went ahead and "stropped" the blade on my forearm a little in attempt to smooth it out a little. It was the best shave I've had with the blade, but nothing to write home about. Was still a little rough, but managed to finish out the shave. Not quite BBS but a DFS at least. Only a little irritation resulted, but still safe to say these blades still aren't for me.

Hey maybe a few shaves on it mite smooth it out a bit

I've been bad about posting but still staying true to SEptember.

I bought those blades I mentioned a few pages back. Shaved only once with one. Wow it was horrible, felt like it was pulling my whiskers out. I could only go WTG, tried XTG after doing a second WTG pass--that was not happening. I will try another blade just to see if I just got a bade one. If no better they will be regulated to my tool box.

There were no markings on the blade spine to tell me anything. On the back of the package it did say Made in Korea. Possibly a Dorco blade???
