I searched for B&B straight razors in the good/bad section and didnt seem to find anything on them. They seem decent priced on ebay for the kits, but we all know how that goes.
Does anyone have any use or useful information on the B&B items on ebay?

Junk... you definitely get what you pay for in the wetshaving world.
I have useful information. I have honed a Beauty and Barber razor. It is crap. I have only held a B & B strop in my hand, but that was sufficient for me to declare that only a B&B razor deserves to be stropped on a B&B strop.
Junk...so many better options out there. If you are looking to go cheap...check the classifieds.
Well I got what i was looking for, thanks guys!
I have to say thanks as well! I was also wondering about this brand. I couldn't find anything on them on the net.
B@B razors might find a following with the muzzle loader guys for patch cutters, but I would worry that the thing would break and cut me while cutting the patch!
Thanks for the thread guys! I was looking at 8/8 razors and just like all of you, came across them on eBay and wanted to know more. Case closed for me :)
When it comes to wet-shaving, B&B serves no useful purpose.
And just to be clear, "B&B" stands for Beauty and Barber!Quote:

Same here, looking for B&B 8/8 on eBay. $99 is too much on a chance.
i hate the fact that these brands even exist... they are causing grief to many beginners in the wet shaving world. -.-
+1 vvti714 - they did with me - although I have had some good honing practice....hehe
Did you bump a 2 month old thread just to agree with yourself?
lol. i didn't even notice that!Quote:

The strop I got off them stood straight out when you held one end. It would have been better descibed as a club.
