    Nice one Dave! You can only download photos up to 1 MB. Unless you made a typo, 500 MB will not do it.

    Yeah It was 1.02 mb and I played with it to get it to @500 kb I guess and still too large message. I use a cheap moto E4 phone. Never any issue with photos on other forums. I get too frustrated too easily with technology. No time for extra apps etc to change a simple point and click photo. I'll play with it another time. Thanks

    Thank you, Dave!

    Good question. This is one of the earliest all SS razors he made. Up until this point they all had the aluminum baseplate. He marketed this as a Limited Edition but I'm not sure he kept it that limited.

    Gotcha, Mine was a mixed metal that I upgraded/exchanged it to the SS base plate. It and the handle was hand polished but the top cap is the vibro finish. Guess it's a Frankenrazor

    Happy Wednesday Everyone. It is a chilly wet morning here in the ATL. Thank goodness we don't have any of that dreaded frozen stuff. Atlanta traffic is bad enough without any additional challenges. The big Rubberset loaded the Mike's with ease whipping up a ton of rich slick lather. I am sticking with the Yates H plate for the week. Three passes and touch ups ended in another automatic BBS shave. I really like this razor. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday.
