3D Injector Razors

 These are my newest 3D printed "injector" razors created by Roger Quintero. They are spring loaded. One has a safety bar, and the other is open comb.

Here is the one with the safety bar.



This one has the open comb. I am a sucker for open comb razors.



Today's Mega Haul

 I got an awesome haul today from Roger Q in  IL. I was surprised with five 3D printed razors. Three take injector blades, one takes an AC blade, and the fifth takes a Gem type SE blade.

Mail Call: Two New Razors

 I got two new razors today that I got in a trade. I was expecting one, but I got two. I expected the Gem MMOC with no bumps. I also got a Gillette Tech. Here are some pictures after a good cleaning.

The MMOC is the bumpless version which means it is an early MMOC. It needed a good bit of cleaning and a good polish. The closing mechanism was gunked and would not work freely. I did an ultra sonic bath and added some lubricant. After much work, I got it free and now it works very nicely.







Here is the Tech. The cap and handle are in good condition, but the base plate had what looked like rust. I tried to clean it up a bit with my Dremel, but it also ended up removing the gold wash.
