I have found that Paladin offers an incredible variety of brushes

Now this is only my opinion but I believe if Paladin Brushes would have been available before the French revolution there may not have been a revolution. Men would have been lathering up, shaving and dreaming with each stroke of the brush of wine, women and song; No one would have have had to loose their heads, a happy disposition would have prevailed amongst the people and solutions would have been worked out for a betterment of France. Instead look at all those potential customer who lost their heads. Now please remember this is only my opinion.

Now on to the present here is a El Dorado 28 Ivory 54 x 56 2CSLD4 (this handle and knot would have tamed the savage beast in any century). The LD4 knot is a dream, now if you get a lower free loft the backbone is strong with beautiful soft tips, a higher free loft lightens the firmness. This knot (along with a few others from Paladin) rivals any knot today by any brush maker in backbone, density and lovely soft tips (as far as Paladin handles they're in a class of their own along with knot density). For me I adore this handle and knot combo (I use it often) so I picked up a few more brushes with this knot in different handles.

What a Beauty! I think Paladin has really taken it to another level with the new Knots they’re sourcing, the two I have are exceptional. That Rod Stock on that Chief looks amazing! Paladin has the nicest handles available in my opinion. Enjoy!

Thank you, all the best to you and your Paladins

The Paladin gave the dastardly evil kidnapper such pleasure in his morning shave that he felt compelled to show compassion and called the grieving parents to let them know that their baby was alive and well (to be continued).

A few days had passed since the kidnapper called, he decided to call again to discuss the payment of ransom and drop but he gave some small but very vital info away at one point in the conversation. He stated he was feeling magnanimous and wanted the parents to know about the condition of their child. But he unwittingly let slip that there is nothing like starting the day with a BBS to give a man confidence to take on the world. The police started digging into this wordage and figured out what BBS meant, which lead them to deduct that this bad guy would need to pick up diapers, baby formula, and maybe some shaving gear? (Elementary my dear Watson).

The police took the initiative and staked out both drug stores and shops that carried diapers, formula, and a nice assortment of shaving items. During the stakeout the police tailed those men that bought both baby and shaving items and tailed each one of them to their final stop. And would you believe low and be hold the police got their man and rescued the baby unharmed and in healthy condition. In their search of the premises for evidence they recovered the kidnappers shaving gear, and amongist themselves admire the kidnappers Paladin which he begged them to please let him have it back.

Dare I say that Paladin helped save the day and reunited a beautiful baby to its family (as you can see in the eyes of her 2 sisters). So let it be known, if it wasn't for the love of the shave, who knows how this terrible deed would have ended.

A new high rise is going up on the next block from where Rosie lives. So when this sweetheart goes by the construction site (which she has to do whenever she goes to the store) she has to endure rude, crude and sexist remarks from those big burly construction workers. So to tame those savage beasts Rosie has learned to always brings her Tigress with her.

Thanks, just trying to have a little fun.

We gals have our ways that's why you guys are such putty in our hands. Now, this may seem a little naughty to you boys, but for a girl to look her best in a swimsuit, a little cleanup is the right touch in the right places. Isn't that right boys.
