OK, Folks!  I wanted to do a pass around with a straight razor, but I have come to the conclusion that there really is not a reliable way to do this, and still ensure that everyone gets a shave-ready edge to use, AND a well-stropped edge to shave with. Short of having everyone shave with a straight for a week and sending it back to me for refreshing, then me send it to the next person...it just won;t work. I can;t afford that kind of shipping, and I don;t want anyone to have a bad experience due to a rolled edge or something. SO!...

This is a shavette passaround.  In the box. I am including a PAA Ibis shavette, a couple tucks of Gillette 7:00 green(Russia) blades, and a tub of B&M Latha Sandalwood soap.

This shavette uses half DE blades. Folks are asked to supply extra blades if they can, or to use their own if they desire. These are the blades I prefer for this shavette, which is why I am tossing some in the box.

RULES!!

OPEN TO CONUS ONLY!

ONE WEEK! You get the shavette and the soap for 1 week. DO NOT GO OVER!! It is unfair to the other participants to go over your alotted time. Keep it moving along so everyone has a chance to play.

Use the soap if you'd like, or not, as you see fit. This soap was generously given to me by andrewjs18  because of the B&M Reserve confusion. I have a tub already, and with his blessing, I am including this tub for the passaround. Use it or don;t as you see fit. DO NOT SCALP IT FOR PERSONAL USE. Again...it's just not fair to everyone else.

You are responsible for cleaning the razor before you send it on to the next person. I have sterilized the razor before the first shipment. You will be responsible to pay to ship it to the next person in line. YOU MUST PROVIDE A TRACKING NUMBER FOR THE SHIPMENT. Each shipment must include a priority tracking number so the progress can be followed by the next recipient. Please ship in a box, not an envelope.

Post your experiences here. The point of a passaround is for everyone to be able to try something new and maybe share some new experiences. Please do that in this thread, so that we might all learn from your experiences. It just works better that way.

If you do not want to use the shavette, but want to try this soap, I encourage you to join the passaround for that purpose. If you don;t want to use the soap, but want to use the shavette, I encourage you join the passaround for this purpose. If you don;t want to use either the shavette OR the soap, but want to try a 7:00 Green blade, I encourage you to join the passaround for that purpose.  This is open for anyone wanting to try any or all of the products included.

That's it. That's all there is to it.

Sign up by posting you are in and what state you are in, and I will keep the list updated in the next post.

Thanks for playing!

wyze0ne[edit] do you mind listing what state you're in?[/edit] Never mind...I see it.

If anyone is uncomfortable having their home state listed publicly, that's fine. It's not a requirement, I thought it would be fun to see how far it travels.

JR_Reyes do you want in? I know you shave with a straight, but you're welcome to jump in if you want.



I hope I am not coming across as rude. I just want to be clear about the rules for everyone...

So...I'm not seeing a whole lot of interest. Gonna leave this go a few more days and then decide what to do with it...It may end up being just a "loaner" if no one else shows interest...

I was going to bump this earlier to try and drum up some interest, but if nobody signs up but me, don't worry about it. I'm still sporadically trying that str8 razor you sent to me a couple months ago. Angel

If no one else signs up, I'll just send it to you to try out for a bit. No worries. I've already got it boxed up and waiting...
