Hi guys!

Of course I want to start shaving a once But I've realized that is not going to happen... I'll start to learn how to hone first, just as you say, and I have bought a razor for just that purpose. I’ll be waiting for it to arrive some time next week, and then I’ll get right on honing it. And stropping of course…

Kees: Hmm, forgot to tell you to search for “rakkniv” instead of “straight razor”. If you still need a dictionary, try this on: http://lexin2.nada.kth.se/sve-eng.html
Good luck!

I still can check for old Swedish razors when I visit the antique stores around here, but I’ll need to know how much you guys are willing to pay for them…
