This is a Shick Type B1 repeating injector razor. This type of razor was made from 1927 until 1930. The shaving head has the "smooth open guard", and it is the silver plated version. This razor has been COMPLETLY taken apart including the entire inside mechanism, and cleaned and tested. All parts are not shown as this razor has a brand new clip loaded with 20 brand new Schick blades and installed into the body of the razor. It is ready to go. This razor comes with Schick pictured and written instructions that explains in detail how to load this repeater razor. At the opposite end of the head is the handle. In the handle is what is called the magazine. The blades are stored in the handle, and you work (pull and push) the handle back and forth the old blade is ejected while during the same motion a new blade is injected into the head. Of note is that the way this mechanism works is that this clip cannot be removed from the handle until all the blades have been ejected from this clip. When fully loaded this clip holds 20 blades.

Because of its compact size this razor is a perfect travel razor. It measures 4 1/2" long by 1/2" square. Just toss it in a small toilet article case and away you go. This particular razor is in excellent aesthetic and mechanical condition.
This razor uses the exact same "INJECTOR" blades that are manufactured and being sold in stores for the many different styles of schick injector and other brands of safety razors that use this exact same blade. These old vintage injector razors were so well made, they were made to last, and last, they have. There are plenty of the different types of old injector razors still available and in use today, as can be attested to by the several companies that today, still make just the blades. This injector razor will provide a very economical alternative shaving method compared to the cost of present day safety razors. Just Google "injector blades" and you will find many sources for Schick, Persona, and other brands of injector blades. Many drug stores and Walmart type stores also sell these blades. This razor comes with it's original leatherette case that is in solid, sound and perfectly usable condition.
