Lancaster Razor Works Bowl ~ The New Improved Schick Injector Razor + Proline B ~ Grizzly Bay Brush
GD Preshave ~ GD Veritas (2nd version) ~ GD Postshave Serum ~ Pitralon Pure AS

This Supply Co. Injector with the aggressive plate is about like an R41 with Feathers. So, I'm definitely in the phase of dialing it in. There were plenty of weepers on shaves 1 and 2. Today was shave 3 and was much better, though I still had some weepers.

I'm finding that I can do the first pass with the blade at the optimum cutting angle. After the first, I'm to start riding the cap. It's yet to be seen if I can go against the grain in the more sensitive areas.

This is a great razor, one of my favorites. I like aggressive razors, so getting one dialed in is part of the process for me.
