SOTD - December 2022

[Bird Lives]

I'm a couple days late posting this but I had a great shave with the Schick Type e and mixed Badger Boar brush the other day.

Fine looking set up! This is an example of one of those perfect type set ups...Simple and everything is simply right. Schick really hit an apex with the E types, and this one looks like a beautiful example of the breed.

Thanks. I wish I could remember which version of the E this is. I'm not very good at deciphering the variant differences.

All the E's are great..but here are the differences so you can tell which yours is.
E1 flat spring, opens.
E2-2: round spring, opens, lather rinse opening is 2 horizontal holes with bar between.
E2-3: round spring, opens, lather rinse opening bar has been removed making it one long horizontal hole
E2-4: first fixed spring. End of spring tab looks like E2 that opens but has a tab added on left side so it doesn't open.
E3-5: 2nd fixed spring type...spring tab has pin in the center of tab to keep it from opening.
E3-6: same as E3-5 except guard bar has horizontal lines, stirations.

Best, Bird
