Non-adjustable injectors from Type I onwards are quite a bit cheaper than the adjustable Type M and the difference in how they shave is minimal. The heads are all very similar. The 'hydromagic' lever on some models and the adjustable were just gimmicks. Other faces may be able to tell the differences, mine doesn't.Now the key question at the end of this is 'Do I Want One?'. Unfortunately the answer is a resounding 'Yes'. Just need to save a few pennies as things are a shade tight at the moment.
Thanks, very useful to know. I'll keep an eye open for one.Non-adjustable injectors from Type I onwards are quite a bit cheaper than the adjustable Type M and the difference in how they shave is minimal.

Have a look at this video, but do it more slowly than shown, making sure the blade doesn't scrape along the blade stops at the front of the head. Easy does it. Enjoy.Injector has arrived, first try this evening, once I work out how to change the blade.
Don't worry about blades. I'll send some to replenish suppliesTried it tonight using a personna dialed it to number 5, it was a bit more chunky and heavier than I expected, on 5 it see,ed to be smooth, but not that efficient, it's a nice quality razor, but lacks something on number 5, I will try it on Thursday on number 7,
Having loaded it with a blade the personna cartridge now seems to be empty, and the Schick cartridge only has one blade in it,
I will feel bad sending it onto blademonkey without any blades, but I have no idea what blades I would need to buy, anyone help with that?
