    DE89/Custom Heavy Handle Razor
    Personna Lab Blue Blade
    Frank Shaving Badger Brush
    WSP Fougere Noir Soap
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Aqua Velva Musk After Shave

    To be honest, when I first used this head with the handle it came with, I just didn't quite get the shaves I wanted and just put it away in my parts drawer. I just took the original handle and used it with an Old Style OC, where it worked fine. After a while, I decided to try it out with this heavy handle, which I got from @Herm2502 a while ago, and it has turned into a stellar performer, especially with Lab Blue blades. The extra weight really helped it out a lot. Two passes and minimal touch up for a very smooth and comfortable BBS shave. Hardly any bite at all when applying the after shave.

    Another great shave from the Paradigm. Two passes did the job. The Dorian brush is gorgeous and the ergonomics are outstanding. The knot has ample backbone and good flow, though after two or three lathers still feels a bit rough. There are very dark hairs distributed throughout the knot so it may not soften much, only time will tell.     ​

    I'll post now for Sunday morning because I have a few things to do soon:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Rapira day 7
    Barbon S/C :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055:
    Nip Man A/S Balm :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :smiley freezing: :smiley freezing:
    Alt Innsbruck A/S Splash :love055::love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily: :Animatedfrozensmily:

    Hey, I gotta show my creams some love too and this Barbon is fantastic. It smells, lathers, and feels great on my skin. The Nip Man balm has a good scent which doesn't linger and it's fairly cooling. Every time I wear the Alt Innsbruck I get compliments on it, especially from my mother-in-law. It also feels very mentholated. I'm freaked out how well the Rapira blades - this one is still giving me very close shaves! ;) :D

    RE: 1955 A1 President...
    I love using razors that are older AND better looking than I am. ;)

    After posting this, I came to the realization, that had I made this same post on B&B, I would have been ridiculed mercilessly by some troll. Thank you TSD!
