    Often overlooked classic. The 89 is low angle bliss, and is perfect for new converts who want a DE that could be a forever razor.

    The Fatip is great, especially if one knows how to use a straight. Glad it was good for you.

    I just got the marble handle (1 Shave), but I think it will have to be the fan. Combine the handle style with the fan shape, and it wins. The bulb in middle is a 26, and reminds me somewhat of an Envy White. Just a little less dense. Both great brushes.

    Great recap. How does the Fatip rank in aggressiveness to the R41 and Ikon Tech?

    Wonderful lineup. Love the looks of the razor.

    The very definition of decadence.

    Wonderful Picture Charlie.

    Great photo Mark. Dropping the bowl would be a prickly situation. ;)

    @PLAla Since store brand witch hazel generally has over 10% alcohol, I have just added the menthol crystals and they dissolved overnight. If I am using Thayers Witch Hazel, I dissolve the cyrstals in a teaspoon of alcohol and added the mixture to the bottle.
