Supply Provision Injector

  I indented for the adjustable.

What does that mean?

It means I backed the campaign by committing to buy a razor from the first batch produced.

What did you think of the razor? My shave yesterday was pretty good. It's really heavy for an injector so I ended up overcompensating and causing a little irritation.

The weight doesn't bother me because I have the V2.  I got a really close shave after dialing it up to four.  I like it!  The adjustment wheel could hold the setting a bit better or have more resistance.

I'm not real good at describing things, but here goes. I am an injector shaver of many years and I also own and like the Supply V2.0. Unsurprisingly the shave angle is intuitive. I started on 2.5 and despite pleasant audible feedback, the shave wasn't as close as usual for the first pass so I clicked up to three. Much better on the rest of pass one and on pass two, but not quite there. On pass three I went with four and got about as close a shave as they come. Tomorrow I start out on four.

Pros:
Intuitive shave angle
Minimal blade feel
Well constucted
Very sleek in appearance
Cons:
The adjustment dial could be more positive. It's very easy to move the setting accidentally. I rinsed my razor off, dried it with a towel and the setting had moved. One of my expensive Unmentionable adjustables does the same, so maybe not such a big deal.

The sleeve is nice, and unlike my matte black V2.0, this razor could be slippery when wet so it is a nice option. Some texture on the underside of the handle would render the sleeve unnecessary.

The blade reminds me of the vintage Feather injector blades of old. Maybe that is just in my mind. They seem pretty good, but the housing is not so good.

Well done review and love the Panda brush !

I went with 4.5 today and wow, did I get a close shave with no irritation. My adjustment wheel seems a bit whacky so I have emailed Supply. So it goes with beta testing.

They shipped me a replacement razor today. Let's hope my original was a freak.

Well, I just ordered the new Supply Single Edge. I was drawn in by the open comb. I am a sucker for open comb razors. I am enjoying my shaves this week with the V2.

I am waiting until June, when I can order just the baseplate, which is supposed to fit my v2.
