I was helping my next store neighbor empty his father’s things from his garage when he picked up an old beat up razor from a shoebox and asked me if I wanted it. When I saw what he was holding, I calmly said sure. He said it looked pretty beat. I agreed and calmly pocketed it. It was a Type F Injector manufactured from 1940-41 before production was halted because metals used in its manufacture were needed for the war effort. I’d been trying to buy one of these for some time with no luck, and here one just fell into my lap. Here is what it looked like:

This is step two after Dawn, toothpaste, boiling water aluminum foil and baking soda, and ultrasonic cleaning. Step three, polishing, will follow in a day or two, as SWMBO must be bored as she has created the honey do list of all honey do lists. Power washing, door hanging, And painting.

Very nice stuff mate!
 
Congratulations. Nice find. And it's come up looking great with the cleaning that you have done. I'm always amazed at how much a "good clean" can change the appearance of these old razors.

What blades will you use with this razor?
