Razor: Asylum Injector Razor
Blade: Schick Krona Stainless
Brush: Unbranded Burma Shave/Boar
Soap: Mike's Natural Orange, Cedarwood and Black Pepper

Fragrance: Penhaligon's Lothair
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1,678
Just the 1st Shave and a great one but not the best Injector shave I've had. I will need to try some different blades but the one I used I've had great results from with other Injector razors so it isn't a problem blade unless a dud one. I would call mine a DFS for sure but based on 1 shave the Schick Type "O" would blow this away for shave quality for me. Is the "O" as cool looking and hefty and 316L SS ? No. I'm glad I have this razor for now and will give it more shaves and try other blades next being the Yellow sChick and Proline B20 after that. Great razor at a steal of a price and I'll hold final thoughts until I have more time with it. Have a great day everyone !

So after 2 shaves that were less than satisfying with the Rx Injector Razor using the Schick Krona Stainless blades I swapped out for another Schick Blade (I have the B20's but seldom care for them). Not sure which Schick it is but it's in the pic. I don't know if they are vintage or modern ones. I think it may be similar to the Yellow pack but it's a 15 cartridge instead of a 7 and I forget how I came by them. All that aside, I finally got a shave I was hoping for from this razor. I immediately felt like the blade was sharper on the 1st strokes and by the 2nd pass I could tell as I usually can that I was getting a good shave. It is a milder Injector Razor for sure and I still think the Type "O" would beat it out but with some effort and a sharp blade this Modern Injector has the goods........at least for this shave, to keep it around and enjoy it. So glad I could join the "cool kids" table finally Everyone have a great day !
