You bet! The handle is even more "Franken" - it's filled with lead, so the weight of the handle is 67g
Thanks!

Merkur 39C
Shark Super Chrome Blade (8th use)
Edwin Jagger Best Black Badger Brush
Dreadnought Shaving Cream
AV Ice Blue
Nivea Sensitive Balm

Remarks: Great mid-afternoon shave. I think this blade is done, quite a bit of tugging/skipping, and I feel that it wasn't cutting nearly as efficiently. Still got the job done tho, amazingly BBS on neck with no weepers and no irritation as of now.

Thank you Celestino & Dave!

Friday morning:

Razor: Redtip
Blade: Supermax Super Platinum (3)
Cream: Speick
Brush: Shavemac Finest
A/S: Mennen Skin Bracer

View attachment 556642

Love the scent of SDM. Decided to go with a non-scented aftershave to bring out the green irish tweed. Stirling is always a winner!
