    Default Railroad Man's Newb PIF

    For all you lurkers, newbs, and other style users, I am paying it forward for what I have received here and lucked into junk shopping.
    This is for those who have yet to try DE shaving (including old members who SE or straight shave)
    I will run until sometime Friday night when I decide it's over, then let my daughter pick a name out of my World Series St. Louis Cardinals Hat.
    Sorry, CONUS only.

    1 JC Penny mug I thought looked kind of like a shaving mug
    5 DE blades- 1 Merkur, 1 Dorco, 1 Super Max, 1 Derby, and 1 Wilkinson Sword
    3 Blue Ridge Soap Shed shaving soaps- Sandalwood Vanilla, Plum Spice, and Dragonfire w/Tallow
    1 Flare Tip Super Speed (user grade) I haven't even looked at the date

    These are not the best soaps, you have to keep lathering them, but please try at least one.
    Anything you do not like, please PIF to someone else.

    Go.

    EDIT: Also for those who haven't tried a vintage razor.

    I have found some vintages and have been very lucky on the BST so someone else can use this more than I can, thanks for the PIF though, someone should be very happy, this is great for any newbie.
