PIF : Starter kit

[bosseb]

​

This PIF is intended as a small repay for the knowledge I have built up as a long time lurker on this board . I was inspired by the 'Item of the week' thread, and since I haven't used this razor for over two years I decided to make this PIF.

The PIF is for anyone who is a member here, but it is by its nature geared towards a learning shaver. My intention is to show a way into a more diversified shaving experience.
The razor is a Muhle R89 with closed comb and open comb (2009) head. Be aware that this is not the aggressive OC head, this one shaves milder than an old type. The standard head is the same as the Edwin Jagger head. The handle and the heads are in mint condition.

The brushes are an Edwin Jagger 19 mm in best badger and a HIS 26 mm synthetic. The EJ is intended for face lathering with the included Palmolive (EU-type) stick and the HIS is for mug lathering with the 100g chunk of Vitos Green soft soap also included in the PIF. A small sample pack of 31 blades is also included, as you can see in the picture.

The rules for the PIF (besides of course the B&B rules) are simple: If you are interested in the PIF post in this thread and SWMBO will draw the lucky winner by 12.00 Swedish time Friday. I will announce the winner and ask for a PM with the address. The postage from Sweden is on me.

Good luck and enjoy your shaves!

I'm in.

I recently went home, to Chicago, to visit family. My youngest brother was super intrigued by my razors, soap, and brush. This would be perfect for him, and help us gain a new member. Anywho, thanks for the opportunity.

I'm in. Had my cousin try my razor last night, trying to get him hooked, and he was very happy with the comfort of the shave. This would be a great set for him to start with.

Bosse, I'm OUT, but I just wanted to say two things:

First, major KUDOS TO YOU, sir, for your generosity--especially given that you are a relatively new member yourself!





I hope your kindness will be revisited on you in the future, with interest!

Secondly, I hope that it's OK that I made an announcement about your kindness over in the Newbie Check-In forum. If this is not to your liking, just PM me and I'll delete it immediately. My thought was to let as many newbies who might not have explored this far into B&B know about your generosity.

Once again, THANKS FOR YOUR GENEROSITY, Bosse!!
