Max restored this beauty with all original parts and she still looks like she just came off the factory floor. The BH software was equally a delight to break out. Splendid scent and a great lather make for a wonderful shaving experience:tu. The Bengall had absolutely no issues mowing the left over whiskers that decided to fly in the face of wisdom and challenge her. Another BBS and smooth shave:y. I am ready to hit the road and tackle what's sure to turn into a "nasty" Los Angeles commute...all for a 1.5 hr meeting. I guess some businesses have not heard of Skype :gaah:.
