I use Google Photo but I download the pics to my chromebook and click the Black box with the white "i" and it puts the link in the post. Pretty simple........

Rod said there will be other handles but I don't remember him giving any details.

I tried another head shave with the HA last night, this time paired with my bulldog handle.  I tried to take off the kid gloves and use it more like I would any of my other razors.  I got a better shave as a result.  I think the blade feel is deceptive.  It still feels extremely blade forward to me, but I had a couple of bumps that really should have been a problem given that I wasn't being too careful.  Not one nick or weeper.  It still feels just a bit too dangerous for my tastes.  I'm going to give the ST one more run on both the face and head before sending these along to Dave in KY and posting my final thoughts on both razors.

Let's try the picture today the way Dave in KYsuggested...

andrewjs18 , I'm going to respectfully withdraw. I'm in a year-long sabbatical, though this razor is my one exception. Based on the great reviews above, I'm sold on the HA. I'm not sure when I'll buy it, though, as I'm rediscovering many razors that I'd neglected for a long time, years in some cases. Just this morning I enjoyed a tremendous shave with a GEM 1912 that I'd forgotten about. Carry on, gents, and I'll keep up with this great thread!
