    Well, crap! I just reviewed the most recent official Classification List as published above by Rick. With the usual "tonnage creep" that occurs in classes over time, my Kent BK12 -- the original Soap Aircraft Carrier -- at a mere 31mm knot has been officially downgraded to a mere BattleCruiser!!! Now what do I do? :(

    Like Jared, @PickledNorthern I should catch up on my reading before making comments. The body double does make more sense, especially when you include the Colorado weed-consuming mannequin behind him for effect.

    .... or, is that a real person?

    Well if carrying a full weapons compliment (full boom)I think the Kent could be considered a carrier class.

    Good evening gentlemen! Hope everyone had a good Monday!

    Another great shave for me this evening. I went with Orange Chill for this shave, great performance and I'm a sucker for citrus scents.
    Rinsing my face after my second pass I was amazed how close my shave is, not BBS but definitely a strong DFS. The Timeless Bronze is sneaky, it's so smooth it doesn't feel like it's doing much.
    I only have about a half dozen uses with the SOC badger. I wouldn't mind if the tips softened a bit but I hope it doesn't lose any of its backbone, about perfect for my tastes.
    Enough rambling. Good night and good shaves![​IMG]

    Thank you! It is in great shape. I bought it pretty quick when I saw it. Pretty good deal on it considering the condition it’s in. It looked better when I got it than the pictures showed.

    Wonderful pictures, outstanding set-ups and inspired shaves, gentlemen! Thanks.

    @Norcalnewb ... I believe you will tame that MMOC!
    @Screwtape ... Mighty glad you gave that Krona a 2nd chance!
