Greetings and Ciao!
Two of us Badger & Blade members from the USA and Italy are partnering in an Intercontinental All Italian Shave-Off! We hope all B&B members with interest and experience with Italian shaving products or really the Italian experience will follow the thread and perhaps even join in and share your thoughts and experiences with us! Let me introduce ourselves and how we came to this point...
My name is Steve (SteveWY) and I am in Wyoming USA. (Yes, I know, I was not very creative when choosing a forum name!) I met my friend Stefano (Mostho) here on B&B when looking to buy or trade for a Cella brick. We became friends and I learned he lives near where my maternal grandfather came from in Italy. We share the same first name and an appreciation for all things Italian, especially shaving products. We started trading packages and staying in touch.
So, recently Stefano told me he had just ordered a FaTip Grande and I thought it would be fun to choose an all Italian set up and use it at the same time and compare notes. Thus, here we are! Our set up for the first week or until we go in another direction is:
Here is my set up for the next week. We will start the shave-off tomorrow and post or impressions along the way. Please join in with your comments on these products as we go! Ciao!
