There is a great Schick Injector information website by Alan G. Appleby at safetyrazors.net. At some point the website was no longer available and I decided to temporarily host some of the information found there on this website. The original site is back, but I'll keep the information here – just in case – and because I like my layout better. The original site can also be found using the excellent “Internet Archive Wayback Machine”: https://web.archive.org/safetyrazors.net/
This is not my material and it does contain errors.

THE SCHICK INJECTOR RAZOR DEVELOPMENT CHRONOLOGY

This page is an addendum to our History, Development and Identification Guide that outlines the types of Schick Injector Razors and their features. Here, you can find a year by year outline of product development which will help you to date the razors you already have or intend to acquire. If you have corrections or information to add to this chronology, please e-mail me.
