What's new

Mr Bingle Presents: Reindeer&Sleigh Ver.3

I did a few more shaves with the Rockwell 6s that my Bingle Buddy sent me and I have to say that it is a very nice razor. It gives smooth and comfortable shaves. It is innovative too. I like the whole concept. Thanks again, Charles!
 
I tried out the amazing MWF and loved it! then I added some spritz of the toxic stuff and by god i think im chosen! my wife even didn't mind it! thanks again @bobmsp I really really enjoyed this bundle of gifts and its the only physical gift I didnt know about that was actually a good one!
I'm so glad you like the MWF. Congrats on being chosen. :Veg:

Happy new year...
 
All Bingle shave today-

Razorock 37 slant head on my razorock handle

Razorock XXX

Fine Santal Absolute AS

GREAT shave today full of intoxicating scents. I LOVE the FSA! This is my first experience with a slant and it is very smooth and efficient- no irritation whatsoever!

Let's talk about the scent combination of the XXX and the Santal- wonderful!

Thank you [MENTION=93173]dangerousdon[/MENTION] for the thoughtful gifts!

I think I'll try the Cajun spice in my lather tomorrow ;)

Happy New Year everyone!

[MENTION=112520]Z4CHc[/MENTION] aka Zach,
Nice presents!
I was gifted a stick of Palmolive by my Bingle Buddy [MENTION=106000]Shave Jacket[/MENTION] and I just used it for the 1st time yesterday. I really liked it. Nice scent and super slick, good cushion too. This was my 1st time to use a stick.
I love the Proraso products! (FYI that is a soap, not a cream. Actually I would say it's a croap.) I just recently tried the British Sterling and the Valor too. I found those scents to be enjoyable and SWMBO liked them too.

The Straight is a C-Mon. Peter Michaels was the distributor for the razor back in the early 1900s. I believe the edge was finished on a JNAT from the person I got it from (not by me... I'm still a subpar homer). It truly is a great razor. :) Enjoy it! And post some close ups since it's a beauty.

I am glad you like the variety of items. You will be busy for awhile now.
 
Greetings, Gentlemen,

In my faith tradition, Christmas lasts until Jan. 6th with Epiphany. The gift I opened this morning was from my Bingle Buddy. It is one of the most thoughtful gifts I have *ever* received, both in terms of the gift itself, and the obvious thought and effort behind the gift. I am overwhelmed by the kindness of my buddy. Try not to be jealous. :w00t:

Here is a picture of the wrapped gifts found inside the package.
