Got a nice surprise today with some early giftmas items- A Merkur 34C, pack of Big Ben blades, a tub of Proraso shave soap, and one of those $10 Tweezerman brushes. Tried them out after a shower, and I'm definitely glad these were on my list. I'm hooked. All that aside though, I'm a fan of industrial design, Cyberpunk, firearms, EDC, and Industrial/EBM music. I currently do amateur journalism for www.cyberpunkreview.com, and I'm about to enter college in earnest. Hope to learn some interesting things there and here.

You have a good start up kit, I started with the Tweezerman also. Welcome to B&B!

Welcome to B&B. I got the Merkur 34C as well (haven't been able to use it yet) and the Proraso soap. Hoping for a great shaving experience once I get to use it. Congrats!
