Greetings Fellow Shavers!
Today marks my 3,000th post and also my 30th month as a member here on Badger & Blade. I would like to celebrate by offering a simple PIF and encouraging some discussion that may be helpful to new wet-shavers and members. I've done PIFs for new members that need a start kit and some help getting started but this time I would like to do a PIF for the "intermediate" shaver. Nothing carved in stone but I'm looking for active members with some B&B history and healthy post count who have been DE wet-shaving for at least 6 months and are beyond the steep learning curve, their shave routine is dialed in and now looking to try some new blades and soaps.
The PIF will include:
- A 3 brand blade sampler with Astra SP, Gillette Silver Blue and Personna Labs
- A tube of Coate's Superior Cream
- An undecided soap puck & tin
- And maybe an AS sample or something else that comes to mind while I'm shaving this week!
Here's the "rules"... Post "I am in" and then include something like a brief summary of your "new shaver" journey, lessons learned, what you gained from the B&B community and especially some advice to anyone just starting out. The PIF closes midnight on August 5 and I will select a winner thereafter. Good luck and enjoy your shaves!
