A few shaves to catch up first up is the Schick Grip. This is just a L head on a tennis racquet looking handle. Shaved great though like all the Schick razors.

Then comes the Schick M. I turned it down for this shave just to show that it will shave great set on 5.

A very nice shave today with this wonderful set adopted from a fellow member from across the street.
50 laps on the the leather before the shave for good measure.
I heavily loaded the CH2 on the Williams puck and a nice face lather gave plenty of lather for the shave, dipping the tips as i needed for the subsequent passes.
I normally follow a 2 pass routine with the Rolls Razor, however, today i went for a traditional 3 pass shave. Yes, the blade does not feel as smooth as a "modern" blade although it is easily sharp enough to cope with my stubble. The 3rd pass was really smooth, i also decided to touch up the whirlpools to give me my 1st ever BBS with this set up. A rub with the Alum block gave very minor indication.
A very happy shaver today.
I finished of the Williams Wednesday theme with a rub of Barts Balm and a nice splash of the Williams Aqua Velva Musk,
I really enjoyed that!
Stay safe and enjoy your day All.

A Radio!  Exclamation   I've been looking for a while now to find one, (that I can afford) no joy so far. What handle is that?

They did silly handles sometimes, the shifter knob was a little over the top IMO, but teen boys at the time probably thought they were cool.
 
Then again, maybe they only sold because they were a gag gift for birthdays!

It's the stock handle.  I have 2 of them.  I got lucky, I guess.  I don't remember their being very expensive.  Of course, the sellers didn't necessarily know what they had.  I got at least one of them in a lot from an Etsy seller.
