Hi all.
I last posted here back in 2017 and since then I have continued to enjoy my shaving, worked through my soaps and creams and found myself at a stage where, maybe strangely for some on this site, I know what I like best and I have actually been reducing down what I own with an aim to be at a maximum of 3 razors, 3 brushes and only stock blades, creams etc when needed.
I have sold some razors, given stuff away, used up stock and not spent a penny on shaving since sometime in 2016 and it's time to get back on this site and give back to a community that either passed items on to me, or simply passed on knowledge and enabled me to find what I wanted to get from shaving. I will probably get posting again more regularly or join in with things like the 3017 again but for now: a UK only PIF!
Hopefully PIFs still exist...
Rules are very simple:
1) UK only entries (sorry across the pond/Europe).
2) Start your reply with a number to be counted for an entry (i.e. if you're first entry type 1, second entry type 2, etc) so I can do a random draw at the start of 2022 to pick a winner.
3) Just say hello and add as much or little as you want to the post. Easy.
The razor up for grabs is the Bluebeards Revenge Cut-throat (although it simply uses half safety razor blades). I thought it would be my gateway into cut-throat razors but after maybe half a dozen attempts it wasn't for me and I'll stick to what I like. So if you're looking to try it out, or always wanted one please enter! I have cleaned and sterilised the razor prior to posting this and the draw will be done on January 3rd 2022.
All the best,
HB
