Moin Heiko, geschichtlich ein sehr interessantes Thema! Mein Vater hat als deutschstämmiger im Sudetenland seine Wurzeln, also in Böhmen. Nach 1945 wurde er und seine gesamte Familie gequält, misshandelt und schlussendlich als Volksdeutsche aus ihrer Heimat vertrieben. Ein unschönes Kapitel als Folge des 2. Weltkrieges, bei dem Millionen von Deutschen ihre Heimat verloren, ob nun in Tschechien, wie mein Vater, oder wie meine Schwiegermutter in Stettin (heute polnisch besetzt). VG Jörg

Hi there, love the channel, very informative. The choices out there is stratospheric isn’t it. I’ve been using the same Wilkinson Sword twist (butterfly) razor for years upon years and my blade of choice is the Astra. May I suggest to your followers that they buy the sleeve of mix blades and see what works for them. My only critique, very small one. When you read off the ingredients within the soap, after shave or whatever, it gets long. And to be honest it doesn’t hold any value. And what do we the follower get out of it, unless your a chemist not much at all. Your channel as is, is fantastic. How fantastic, I rewatch episodes, that’s how fantastic it is. Thanks. Mike

I remember seeing a review of the Pal a couple years ago, I think it was Subie, and he explained that the Pal adjustment mechanism was different than Schick in that the Pal mechanism worked like a swing from large gap - low exposure to the other extreme of small gap - large exposure Here you go: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ena9hmR6nL2GiNU explanation begins at 1:35

Heiko - Since the injector razor blades are harder/stiffer than a SE or DE blade, you should be able to get double the shaves out of the injector blade than with a DE and SE blades. Yes, the injector blades are more expensive per blade, but being you can get much more shaves from each blade, it off-sets the cost of each blade. 🪒

Just picked up a NOS Pal yesterday with case and original instructions. Loaded with a new Personna 20 count injector. Major difficulties in getting the blade inserted and aligned. First shave was not pleasant at all. Ordered some Schick yellows per the previous comment and will try a different shave angle as suggested. Too early to give up yet😂

The gap doesn't change on the pal. The gaurd/safety bar moves in and out, changing the blade reveal. I just bought a second pal adjustable as I'm liking them better against the grain than the schick... and I'm a schick fan. Pal adjustable problems 1. QC issues from the factory 2. Wrong shave angle ( should be riding the bar, not the cap like a schick ) 3. Poor blades ( use yellow schick )

Do you recommend buying the Rockwell T2 over the 6c razor? I've owned the 6c for two weeks now, but seriously thinking about returning it, and buying the T2. I'm not a fan of blade overhang hang, and the plate changes in mid shave gets messy. 🤔
@Heiko-shaves
@Heiko-shaves 9 күн бұрын
I like the 6c more than I like the T2. The T2 head is really large and on setting 1-2 it is not really shaving. I would keep the 6c, i don't really switch plates mid shave. I tread it like a non adjustable. YMMV

Nice vid. Have used a Schick, on and off, since the early 70, and it worked well enough. For the old Schick Injector to still have a following, speaks for itself. Supply also works well enough. Agree with the injector comment, would be great to use the Supply Injectorwith other injector razors. Despite numerous attempts with varying blade types and setting, the Parker does not work for me. It has thus been retired to the display box. Nice mix of products. Enjoy the weekend, cheers, John
