Forty degrees and light rain this morning. The C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream face-lathered very easily with my Omega Pro 98 Boar Brush. Two passes with my '47 Gillette Super Speed and Astra SP blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, alum block, and a final cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayers Lemon WH and then Pinaud Clubman after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed... Just four shaves left in NOVember.

Personna Injectors

The availability of injector blades locally is virtually non-existent.  I have a Schick magazine that I got while down in SC a couple of years ago, but I cannot find any Schicks locally. They are available online, but they are $6.99 plus shipping. That is over a dollar a blade. I found the Personna Mini Shaper Blades on Amazon. I got 20 for $8.78 with free shipping. That comes out to about 44 cents a blade. They are advertised as comfort coated.

They do not have the injector key, so I have carefully transferred about seven of them to the old Schick magazine. These should last me a good long time. I will give them a try in December since I am participating in the NOVember "No Variation" theme. I am looking forward to using my Schick M again.

Arrived today, OMEGA 49 boar brush.

Feathers Arrived Today

I ordered these blades on Amazon back on my birthday, October 15. I didn't notice that they were coming from Thailand, but that is where they were coming from. They were a good price, and that is all I was focused on. Well, today, November 19,  I found the blades in the mailbox. I am doing the no variation NOVember, so it will be December before I will get to try them out.
