I thought there was a thread around on these but I can not find it.

I used this very nice kinda strange very good shaving razor again. It is easy to load with an injector blade, as long as nothing is bent out of shape. If the bottom holds the blade tight then you are good to go. It is a very easy razor to use and can be picked up for very little ching,

Happy shaves to ya!

Cool video Fuzzy. I thought an original blade was needed as a shim/carrier like with an Enders Speed. Cool to see that isn't the case. Next time I see a good price on one in an antique store I'll probably pick it up.

Nice shave and video, Fuzzy. Nice to know that an injector blade will work in a Christy...but now I need to get one for myself.

Thanks for the video, Fuzzy. You have inspired me to do a Christy shave. I am shooting for next Monday. Maybe I will do a video, too.

This is such a terrible group. Always influencing us and or enabling us. I'm sure glad I'm part of it. Big Grin

Thanks, Fuzzy. I have three Christy's but have never shaved with one. I have one prepped a Personna blade and ready to go tomorrow. Thanks for the gentle prod. I am looking forward to this shave.
