Thread: Josh's Razor & Shaving Accessory Giveaway

if one of them is me...don't worry I won't. I've been dreaming of one of Tony's strops.....but haven't been able to justify purchasing one since I have a perfectly functioning strop....ebay cheapo. (Just kidding) I think if I'd be chosen I'd "pick and chose". I'd say yes to the soap, brush and strop and ask for the razors to be handed out.

well, i'm definately a newb too... i've got one straight and a cheapo zeepk strop that i got ripped off on (i actually have three, but the strop came w/2 cheapo zeepks that i didn't know how bad they were).

Zeepk razors are great! They make perfect butter spreaders, but you have to make sure you melt the butter until it's almost liquid, otherwise you'll deform the razor.

Wow,

Very cool of you guys to put this together, it's going to make someone very happy.. If you need any more nominee's I'm available..

Guys I am going to have to postpone this giveaway because I have only gotten 2 nominees and they are both very senior members, who I am sure would bow out of the competition all together.

I will keep you posted.

Just an idea,
What about splitting up the prizes and giving them to newb's who can't afford everything? It is kind of pricey to get started...

Disclaimer: I'm a newb but I already have everything (though not as nice) on its way. I don't mean myself with this suggestion.

Josh, splitting up the prizes may be a good idea. My nominee can get his hands on razors at any time and I can hone one for him. What he's missing are a good strop, a good hone. I am sure other contributing newbs have similar issues, so you can mix and match the prizes.

Josh,

Don't worry just send it to me..

I'll split it with ya Richz

As all the senior guys will have all this kit (and probably more)
and most of the newbies (who need it) will not be known to many others
and seeing as you were going to give it away anyway

Howabout a raffle, with the proceeds going to a worthy cause (childrens charity, Ex Service mens charity etc)? Be nice to give something just before Christmas.

Tickets could be say $5 or $10 a pop, paid in advance by Paypal to whoever. No dough - No go.

Here in the UK on other Forum's where raffles have taken place, the draw has been linked to the National Lottery (which is televised).

I dont know if this is practical or not, just my 0.02c worth, but it would seem a good way of using what is an awesome prize! (and doing a bit of good to boot)
