I wrote to the seller to say that the handle must be plastic, but he said he was sure it was aluminum. Is this some rarity (since it's not a Type F with that head), is it a Franken-razor, or is the seller wrong?

Re: Can this Schick Injector have an Aluminum Handle?
Paul, this is an interesting issue. If you find out whether or not the handle is aluminum, please let us know. I had never heard of such an option on the old Schicks.

Re: Can this Schick Injector have an Aluminum Handle?
My opinion right now is that it's a Schick "66" with a dark blue plastic handle, and the handle happens to be kind of cruddy and so not as obviously plastic.
I also suggested that the seller try some metal polish on the handle, because that should bring an aluminum handle back to its usual silvery color.

Re: Can this Schick Injector have an Aluminum Handle?
A very similar one showed up recently, not claiming to have an aluminum handle:
