Back to the N1 Injector with a Twin blade in it for shave 5. I will be grabbing this one fairly often as I am curious about the Twin Blade longevity and whether it will go (comfortably) the 20+ shaves it is said to be capable of. #5 was smooth, close and comfortable. Grabbed one of my favorite scents from an old time and now gone soap maker - Russian Tea from Strop Shoppe. Frank (Dragonsbeard), I know you have a ton of things going on in that brain of yours but if you could do a great Russian Tea with STRONG scent strength you would pull me from my "NO MORE SOAPS until I use some up" position. Topped off with some smelly stuff and ready to get out the door after some coffee and forum perusing. Have a Stellar Day everyone !!

The N is not a favorite of mine. it does give the usual great Schick shave though. I use to have two of them I will have to hunt around and see if I can find one for a shave here soon.

Not a favorite of mine either with the long handle. But it was designed to use the twin blades that I'm playing with. I know some out the twins in other injectors but I don't want to risk spreading the soring on one that wasn't designed for it.

I am the same way. I get a tick when I read about a twin blade forced into a G.....and have to get in to my therapist if I hear it in a E. The H1 dies really nice with a twin though.

You have to try them.
