    Thanks, Jim. I just did a test lather and ended up with an airy frothy mess. I'll mess with it again tomorrow night.

    Sounds like my first lather with it. Pretend you are a frugal shaver and load it light and work the heck out of it.

    I thought I did load light. Maybe my brush was too wet to start with.

    Yes sir! Now we’re talking! I look forward to your Fat shaves.

    Grate the puck into the ceramic dish and push it all down. I always bloom The Fat before loading. The lather will not look the same in the brush as most other soaps. It will look airy but with lathering all of that air will work out. I have no trouble loading and lathering Mitchell’s. Good luck!

    I’m way, way behind on the thread. Early morning shave today, posting right before bedtime. This Artist Club razor is delivering super shaves, and the colleagues who got to ride with me for an hour out of town this morning got the 2018 meet up scent in all its glory.
    I’m going to try to catch up a bit now, but I don’t really like my chances.

    That is a product I have never tried. I remember reading reviews on it and saw no middle ground, it was love or hate. Some of the descriptions in the negative reviews just about had me rolling on the floor.

    I'm a little afraid to try it.

    I'm just not sure I could endure the scorn if I liked it.

    :cool:

    I was meant to ask this question. The only point that I can see an issue is the threads because of the stainless handle... I'm guessing I'd have to crank it pretty hard to do damage though!

    I've seen someone put a Yintal Bronze top cap on there to solve this... I won't be solving a problem that doesn't exist for me at the moment!
