Nice try, Ben but it's only been 4 shaves in so far and it'll take a lot longer for me to decide; plus you'd be asking me to choose one of my children over the other
Anyhow a baseplate would be no use to you without a slant cap and I've only got one of those.
 
SOTD - 'Fat' Tuesday
Pre: Village Barber oil
Soap: Mitchell's Wool FAT
Brush: Rubberset-400 replica with 24mm boar
Razor: Edwin Jagger Barley Chatsworth
Blade: Vintage Iridium (1)
Post: Thayer's witch hazel, followed by USB & Village Barber balm
Face needed a bit of a scrub this morning, so whipped out my R400 boar and took to face-lathering the FAT. It's been too long since I've taken MWF out for a spin. This stuff is awesome!
Great scent, super slick, and great skin after-care. EJ razor has the same head as the DE89 but has my all-time favorite handle. Smooth and clean, but sharp! "Rico Suave"
 

Bugger! looks like I will have to order from ATT direct!

After 1924, this was easy to use, and with ability to polish up, had a really fine Shave.
Maybe the OC is taking the lead.

Nice DFS
Trying out blade for first time, first pass a bit tuggy but settled down and second and third passes nice.
Left with a bit of razor burn but sorted out with some Nivea balm.
Have a good Wednesday
