    I have an ATT atlas with R1 and H2 baseplates. The H2 demans respect and can bite if your not paying attention. I may bring out the H2 when you get your's in so that you can have some ATT company.

    I have a bit of a bone to pick with the local The Men's Soap Shoppe. They send me an e-mail saying my account is good, then I try to log in as a registered customer and try a new password, and back comes a message saying no one is registered with my e-mail. I don't know how much sense that makes, but this is where a phone call SHOULD settle things.

    It's nice there. You can find various hikes and while you're on them, suddenly the Canadian Flag can be seen.

    Oh my! Impressive. :cool: 'Show signatures' turned back on. Promptly turned back off :ashamed001: . I'll end up getting very little work completed if I have constant access to your (or anyone's) den inventory! Everyone's prose and photography is already more than my wallet and I can handle! :scared011:

    MWF~~Pure Badger~~Detroit National Cut. Co.~~Small Batch Shave Tonic
    I really put the MWF to the test today. This pure badger brush is the floppiest, scratchiest brush
    ever created. But, it was a gift from my son and thus it's going nowhere.
    Kinda looks like they inserted the knot upside down, doesn't it?
    Full bore bloom and a long brush soak, before even attempting a load.
    The knot is so floppy, loading must be accomplished with a firm grip at the base of the knot.
    I was able to get a very substantial amount of soap loaded and using primarily paint brush strokes,
    slapped this soap into a frenzy of top-notch shaving lather.
    The DNCC isn't my prettiest razor, but I love the design and it shaves like a dream.
    Not one hint of pull, even on the ATG pass, and while a BBS was not achieved all over,
    I got a great shave.
    The post shave juice was gifted to me by a great Guy (pun intended), @ram57
    The brisk weather fits perfectly with this amazing fluid.
    Smells great and leaves the skin well-hydrated.

    Great looking combo again, Terry. You’ve enabled me...I think I’ll pick up another sample of that Bay Rum again.

    Lovely pic again, Jim. That Timeless is a massive looking razor! And, again, what a brush.

    OH MAN.........right until I saw that I was pleased with my choice, thinking I'd climbed that baby twice. Ahh, I'll keep with it anyway. My dad would have wanted me to have a mtn. avatar, even if it isn't a Colorado mountain.

    Ya, no kidding Joseph. The knot does look upside down. A nice looking handle, though. Love the splash bottle!
