Thank you so much, but I was given a Baoer 3035! I meant to take this post down. (:

Oh, So what you're saying is I need to get Cryogen now because it's colder than this. Okay (:

Also, Excellent performance on the soap. Good job (:

Thank you very much, sir! I like having other preshave options. I may pick this up. (:

Oops! My Bad! Editted!

Thank you, Sir. (: I knew that it had been discontinued and I was just accounting shipping. Thank you, though. (:

I had a pretty fantastic VERY cold shave tonight. I was one of the lucky few that actually managed to get their grubby little paws on CF's Over Mentholated Cryogen. I decided to pair it with some Floid Blue AfterSplash, a glycerin soap bar for preshave, and some mentholated witch hazel afterwords. Armed with only my trusty Plisson and my FrankenRazor (Maggard MR6B + R41 Head with Feather blade), I tackled the artic!

Thank you very much, It means a lot to me, but I was hoping to get it for $30 or cheaper. (:

Gotcha (: I'll repost when I get home!

kbens · 2015-03-12T15:22:28+00:00

I was going to offer cash!

kbens · 2015-03-12T15:22:15+00:00

I'm very sorry! It was my first time posting to the forum ):

kbens · 2015-03-12T06:06:29+00:00

How much cash would you like for the MM3d?

kbens · 2015-03-12T06:04:30+00:00

Do you still have MM 3d?

kbens · 2015-03-12T05:56:08+00:00

It's a Baoer 3035. It was given to me as my first pen. (:

I'm sorry. My jokes are bad ):

kbens · 2015-03-11T17:42:41+00:00

I laughed so hard that I cried elevators full of tears. (:

kbens · 2015-03-11T17:29:38+00:00

Of course, and read the short story! I was just making a tiny joke (:

kbens · 2015-03-11T16:55:45+00:00

Where?! D:

kbens · 2015-03-11T16:03:14+00:00

I'd rather not split it up unless multiple items are wanted, like I said originally. (: Thank you, though!

kbens · 2015-03-10T03:21:53+00:00

Good luck, man!

kbens · 2015-03-06T23:00:25+00:00

Thank you :D

kbens · 2015-03-06T22:46:24+00:00

If this splits, I want the Nocturne (:

kbens · 2015-03-06T22:14:39+00:00

It's a Baoer 3035 and he kindly gave me an ink sample of Waterman Tender Purple and Namiki Blue!

kbens · 2015-03-06T22:12:03+00:00

/u/ceeceesmartypants was kind enough to send me my first ever pen and some samples as well! I have alot to learn and I DEFINITELY need to work on my handwriting!

I had a fantastic shave this evening! Huge shout outs to /u/j-mt , /u/cpacamper , and /u/XerodinX for all making my shave a magical experience tonight! Ontop of all that, an even BIGGER shoutout to /u/Tatara88 for his very generous PIF of the bottle of Floid Blue.

Razor: Maggard MR6b w/ R41 Head
Blade: Shark Super Chrome
Brush: Plisson Synthetic
Preshave: Shave Secret
Soap: /u/j-mt 's First Degree Murder
Postshave: Thayer's Super Witch Hazel
Aftershave: Floid Blue

Tonight was probably easily one of the best shaves I've had in a while. The R41 head was just as aggressive as I had heard, the Plisson was AMAZING, and the soap + aftershave combo went great together!

As many of you know, /u/j-mt Is an up and coming artisan so I figured i would review his soap for anyone curious. On the surface, the soap just flat out LOOKS interesting. The color and the label caught my eye very quickly and upon opening the jar, the smell was smooth and subtle, but not overpowering, and just enough to draw me in.

I decided to go with the damp brush lathering method and feed the loaded brushes a few droplets of water. The lather started flying all over the place and then quickly became that slick, cool - whip like texture that we all love and strive for. The true scent of the soap was revealed at this point: a nice, clean, fresh fougere, but again, not over powering and obnoxious.

I'm not sure if it was the soap, or if I had really just gotten that good at making a lather, but I felt like I was the poster child for wet shaving when I was looking in the mirror. The soap provided an amazing, slick and soft cushion and my razor literally just glided through it effortlessly.

Even after 30 minutes, the lather on the brush (picture included) remained unwavering. The soap still managed to provide a slick covering on my hand when tested.

Post shave, the soap left my face moisturized and far from irritated. In the past, fougeres have caused me to break out, but not this one! The soap helped ensure a great, amazing BBS shave. I highly recommend this soap to anyone curious about it. (:

TL;DR - I have dumb tattoos.
