At least I will tide myself over for a while using one blade in a MMOC, MMBT and the Triceratops. As I look into my crystal ball I can see a trip to some antique stores in my future! I've crossed paths with some of the traditional looking Schick injector razors before, but didn't pay them any attention. I'm going to have to start boning up on the different types!
If I'm getting 10 good shaves from a Gem SS PTFE blade, do you have any thoughts on how many shaves to expect from these Personna injector blades?
I got the OC Dammy from twhite's BST on 25 October. I shaved with it on 01 November and 09 November.
I haven't implemented a counting system for injector blades. I have many injector razors now and most of them are loaded with there own blades. I guess I could make a little card for each and put tally marks on the cards like I do on the cardboard sleeves of the Gem blades. I'm just not that ambitious/concerned about it. Or at least haven't been yet.
I'm sure I've seen your Dammy then. It just didn't register in my brain at that moment.
You're right, I didn't think it all the way through. You load an injector blade and it stays until it can't do it's job any longer, then you push another one in. Don't sweat it! Thanks!

Also a VERY generous Pif of a cased ER from a fellow YouTuber, HD Shaves as he knew I was trying to source an Ever Ready Case for my Made in England ER razor aluminum handle. Fits like it belongs in it. I'll clean it all up and do a video with it soon enough as well as an opening and use of the Adjustable on another one.
Nice!!! Your gonna love that adjustable!!
Happy shaves to ya!

I haven't used an aftershave since I was a teenage over 30 years ago but I've been curious seeing SOTD pics and watching YouTube videos so when Clubman had a sale I went for it. I have no idea what I'll like so I got a nice mix of everything. I got the shampoo because it was recommended to me and the soaps were so inexpensive I just had to try them. I had been wanting to try a Col. Ichabod Conk soap anyway.
Today was my first shave with both the Conk paired with the Citrus Musk and I was blown away! I had smelled the aftershave in the bottle and it didn't do much for me so I wasn't holding out much hope but once I got it on my hands hand rubbed on my face...BAM! The scent hit me and it was just fantastic. Now, hours later, there is just a hint of it left which is just perfect for me since I'm not into heavy scents.

Citrus Musk is an absolute favorite of mine. Great sampling of really good aftershaves!!! The Clubman soap is the classic Vanilla scent to me, I like it also.
Happy shaves to ya!
