Just wanted to give a shoutout to how awesome this forum really is. I've been reading for months finally joined last month and won a newbie PIF. In honor of everything arriving I wanted to do a full PIF shave. @John Ruschmeyer PIF'd the 1965 Gillette SS with a sampling of blades great shave. @soapbuddy PIF'd the Gingers Garden GC that paid for the private reserve soap which lathers and smells great. @Queen of Blades PIF'd a TSD shop GC that paid for some Vanilla Bourbon TSD After Shave that feels and smells wonderful. I appreciate the PIF and all of the great advice I've received so far. The Shave Den is awesome! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Fantastic forum! I hit in the last raffle: Ball end Tech travel razor and case manufactured in England ca. 1948-50
Great PIF for you. I believe shaving folks are some of the most generous people around. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
I know right! So not to go too deep into drama or anything but this forum really does have a much more welcoming and helpful vibe at least one other that I know of is just a wee bit pretentious for my tastes. It really is I'm a huge fan so far. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yep. Just be careful to never mention that one forbidden topic regarding that shaving thing that some guys prefer but other guys don't, and you'll be fine.
Could be, could be! Could be a specific product. Or could be a razor. A brush. A blade. A system or format (str8, DE, carts, etc). A technique. A particular brand, vendor or service. A philosophy or idea perhaps only tangentially related to shaving. Or simply making a observation. Or having the unmitigated audacity to question an aspect of conventional wetshaving wisdom that most hold to, or which most don't. Could be literally anything. And it has indeed been literally anything...on other boards. But not here. That's why TSD is top drawer.
