I made these two boxes today for a shaver who wanted boxes for his Gillette NEW and Red Tip.
Box 67
Box 68
I don't remember when I came up with this idea, but it has worked well for me. I first got some magnets with one sticky side. I pasted them to the back of my "medicine cabinet" door. I would use them to hold blades that still had some life left in them. Later, I was introduced to very small powerful magnets. I got some and used several of them. I have a spineless Gem blade, a Feather FHS-10 blade, a Personna Single Edge PTFE blade, and an assortment of double edge blades attached to the door. This has worked out well for me. I will only retire a blade when it no longer gives a good shave.
In 1921, Colonel Jacob Schick introduced his Repeating Razor. In 1927, he put out the second model of the Repeating Razor. In 1933, the third and last model of the Repeating Razor hit the market. I have a specimen of the third type. Monday through Friday's shaves this week will feature my Schick Repeating Razor, C3.
I got this Schick G Type (Navy Handle) Injector with some Holland Schick Platinum Blades from The Shave Den Raffle. The prize donor was jay_gatz. I got to choose three prizes in order of preference. This Schick was my first choice.
