Good day ladies and gentlemen of Badger and Blade! It's been quite a while since I did a PIF, please let me introduce to you what I have assembled for you over the past weeks. A set of gear including a razor, brushes, soaps and blades. All you might need to get started or make some nice additions to your shave den. All items are brand new in box, only removed briefly to take the photo.
First the razor, the Game Changer from RazoRock. "But which one?" you ask. You will receive both the .68-P the .84-P base plates, cap and Barber Pole handle. It's a wonderful machined stainless steel razor that will surely give you a lifetime of great shaves.
Next the brushes, one boar, one badger and one synthetic. First, the Semogue Owner's Club Boar is one of my favorite and most used brushes. Yours comes with the Butterscotch resin handle. Second a 24mm G5A synthetic knot set in a yelllow/black handle from AP Shave Co. I don't have one of my own yet but from what I've read it is a very well loved brush. Finally a Simpsons Duke 3 in Best. One of Simpsons most popular and highly regarded brushes.
The soaps. Martin de Candre Fougere. All this time I thought this brand was just a legendary myth but I finally found an online shop in Canada that actually sells it so this one's for you. Next up is the 70th anniversary edition of Saponificio Varesino. Haven't used this one either but bought it based on its stellar reputation. One more soap I have not yet had a chance to use is Canada Shaving Soap. Unscented and also very well regarded. The fourth puck is one I actually have myself and it's one of my favorite soap scents. D.R. Harris Windsor in the dark wooden bowl. I hope you'll enjoy it too.
With the recent discontinuation of the tallow versions or complete disappearance altogether I will also include the tallow versions of the Palmolive, Speick and Wilkinson Sword shaving sticks and a stick of La Toja as well.
Finally, a selection of blades, 80 in total. Ten each of GSB, Feather, Supermax Super Platinum, Perma Sharp Super, Super Iridium, Wilkinson Sword (India), Voskhod and Gillette Bleue Extra.
All this can be yours for a simple I'm in, no not this time I'm afraid. To win I must ask a bit of participation from you, in turn the winner will not be randomly selected by me, but by how well you choose. So choose wisely, as someone once said.
The winner of this giveaway will be the one who chooses the most winners of all the Major League Baseball games that take place on April 15 and 16. There are 15 games scheduled for each day so 30 games total. In the event of a tie, the tie will be broken by whoever guesses the closest (over/under doesn't matter, this ain't The Price is Right) to the number of candies in this jar. It is a mixture of secret ratio of Peanut M&M's and Jelly Beans. In the highly unlikely event of another tie. I will draw names out of a hat
Okay, here is the list of games. Please copy and paste this list (everything between the dotted lines) and add your choice of winners and your guess for how many candies are in the jar. Please retain this format as it will be more time consuming to sort through them all if the format has been changed.
