Pre - Pears Transparent original face wash
Brush - Silver Birch Brushes - Cocobolo 26mm Silvertip
Soap - Ariana & Evans Pamplemousse
Razor - Unmentionable SE
Blade - Personna Injector (5)
Post - Cold water Rinse, TC's infused Witch Hazel
Balm - Barts Balm Lime Balm & Lotion
A/S - Pashana
A bit of a trial today, i decided to see if an Injector Blade would work in my SE Unmentionable, Why? well - because we can, if one SE can do it why not another? I set the blade lined up with the toe of the razor head a quick re check it was level in the head before starting the shave.
A nice face lather with a face full of soft Badger mixing up a nice slick covering.
An earlier shave than normal so not a lot to go at so off i went.
I completed a Full WTG pass and from the off the razor just felt so smooth, mild even, angles seemed more forgiving and it wiped away the stubble that was there with ease.
I rinsed and re-lathered the chin and set about a mixed pass, again feeling so smooth, the razor felt really safe on the skin.
Not a scarily close finish and i could have touched up here and there but as a trial i am very happy with that.
I may need to measure the blade width to see if the injector is a smidgen smaller than an AC blade which could account for the milder feel?
Anyway,
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.
Update:-
A bit digging on the auld Google shows both AC and Injector blade are 8mm wide and 0.25 thickness.

Saturday's Shave
Cold Water Rinse
Palmolive Shave Cream
Jayaruh #41 2-band badger
AutoStrop A2
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Aqua Velva Musk AS
The Palmolive Shave Cream lathered well with the Jayaruh #41 Two-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the AutoStrop A2 Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I have the Sterling ice drops. It's nice to have it separate and be able to add how much I want when I want it.
