Gentlemen,

2012 is quickly fading and the promise of a new year, and new shaves, is upon us! Help us at the B&B SOTD welcome 2013 by showing off your finery here!

I'm sending the year away in style with two products I received from members here on B&B. The suds were compliments of Jabonman's Vetiver Haiti and the skin scraper was courtesy of our own CelticCrusader, Jamie, who restored this beautiful Iron Duke Solingen blade. I am BBS and waiting with open arms for the new year to begin!

They joys of Monday's: Menthol and Merkur :D

You smell that? Do you smell that? Menthol, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of Menthol in the morning. You know, one time I had shaved, for twelve hours. When it was all over I felt my face. I didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' stubble. The smell, you know that Menthol smell, my whole face smelled like…victory.
