You DESERVE Fancy Tim

Thanks Dave

Fancy indeed! That SR handle is quite nice looking (they're called scales, right?).

So mrdoug and his subtle enabling had me using another sample from Sir Henry’s that I had. His soaps work well for me, so it’s just a matter of scents. I smeared a bit in the copper bowl and got to it. Had a nice, smooth shave and three passes left me BBS for the win! Had the missus give me a sniff before I splashed on the aftershave. Dang it Paul, she really likes this one too. You’re killing me man, I’m trying to downsize. Anyway, a great shave and scent. Life is good!

So I've had this experience, too! And also with Sir Henry's/Black Tie!

I say we buy him one of every soap we can find, lol
