By concentrating today I got a better Shave from this Razor/Blade combo, but suspect the blade is a bit off. Maybe time to see if it will take a Kat blade it certainly didn’t like the Proline that I used initially.

The Injector in the VB3 Valet works really well, i did have to remove the centre post from the top cap with a rotary file but i think this will also open this razor up to using half blades.
I lined the blade up with the bottom edge "VALET" pressing with the side blade clamps just nipping the blade holding it in position, closed the razor, checked alignment and away i went
Anyway 2 passes today WTG then XTG for an easy SAS finish.
Enjoy your day all.
