I'm in. I started in 2010. I received a Tech from my Uncle and used what was locally available at Wal-Mart. Wilkinson Sword blades, Wilkinson Sword brush and Williams Mug Soap. Only thing I have left from those days is the Tech.
I'm in. I've been wetshaving since around 1979 with a Gillette Good News razor and Barbasol canned goo - high school days. But more to the interest of this forum it was around 2004 that I started wetshaving with a brush, soap or cream, and a DE razor. Omega boar - black handle I think, Williams soap in an Old Spice mug (a mug I still use), and a Merkur HD razor which I still use today. Nice PIF. Thanks.
I'm in! My first shave was with my great-grandfathers SR with the VDH deluxe kit on April 22nd, 2016 (yes, four days ago, the day before I turned 28)!! I would love to try with these razors as well. I also want to get my brother in law into wetshaving because normal shaving gives him bad razor burn on his neck Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I'm in. Great PIF. June of 2011, I decided to go retro. I went back to my father's blade, the double-edged razor. I went on line and purchased a Parker DE razor with 10 Shark Chrome Blades, a stainless shaving bowl, a badger hair brush, and a tube of Musgo Real Shave Cream. This initial setup is thanks to a gift card I got for Fathers Day. Thanks, guys! Happy Anniversary.
Awesome pif!!! Count me in!! I started about 3 or 4 months ago. My first shave was an ej89 with an astro blade, proraso green soap, proraso green splash, and a van der hagen boar brush Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
I'm in. Started Jan 2016 with a Merkur 34c, Satin Tip the "Purest" brush, and blades grimm smolder soap. Thanks for the PIF!!
I'm in. I got started around Jan 2014. I bought a Micro Touch One, and as the blades that came with it. Shortly after, I started to use Cella and Personna Lab Blues blades. It's gotten better and better, from that day on.
I'm In! I've only been wet shaving since February 13 this year, but I will never go back. I started with a Gillette Slim, Omega boar bristle brush and a puck of Arko. I have definitely been getting the best shaves of my life.
Not in I already have lots of stuff. Very kind of you to put this out there though! I started wetshaving October 2013 and it seems like yesterday. The first razor for me was a Merkur 42C.
Very generous offer....IM IN! I started wet shaving about 4 months ago. My starter pack consisted of: - Merkur 33 Classic Double-Edge Safety Razor - Parker Black Handled Pure Badger Brush - Prosaro Green Shaving Soap - Feather Blades Since then I've added a few blades and a few soaps, a synthetic travel brush, and a RazoRock Jaws that I don't like as much as the Merkur.
I'm in! I started with an ikon 102 and an omega boar off amazon. I've tried a few things, but I've never tried the things you have in this very generous PIF.
I started a year ago in January. I started with a RR Mission, Cella shave soap, and a Semogue 1305 brush, which still gets used ~90% of the time, and Clubman aftershave. I still have a picture.... Almost forgot; Please count me in
Nice PIF and I'm in like a boss. started off with Merkur Futur clone razor, The Blades Grim Smolder soap and Satin Tip Synthetic brush
I started in April 2014 with a merkur HD, a semogue boar brush and razorock XXX I'm in Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk
Thank you all for your interest in this PIF - and keep the entries coming, I enjoy reading your stories Thank you very much, my friend - but I just love to give stuff to people and I'm happy when they like it
I'm sorry to hear that - but it's nice to see that you manage to find more pleasure in your everyday life
Very generous PIF! The winners are all in for a treat! Not in, since I've got gear and soap enough. (that and SWMBO just may start to frown a bit...)
Nice PIF, not in as I already have enough gear. But.. I started in June 2013 with an EJ89 Lined handle, Astra SP blades, Vulfix 404 mixed and TOBS Sandalwood cream. (And if I hadn't found these pesky forums, I would probably be using the same setup.)
I started recently in December of 2015. Razor was a Weishi gun metal, soap and brush came from the VDH deluxe shave set, and the post shave was Nivea Sensitive. I still use all of these except for the Weishi razor since I PIFed it. Good luck to everyone!
