    Hello Everyone,

    I'm new to the site and recently switched from Disposables cartridge (Fusion Power) to DE's and am shopping for my first straight razor. I appreciate the wealth of information on the site and the apparent openness of all the members. I'm sure I will have questions over the next several months and want to thank you ahead of time.

    Brian, You have come to the right place for info and help.
    Please do your homework before buying a straight razor so you don't get dissapointed.
    It need not be very expensive but decent condition is important and not made in China or Pakistan.

    There is a lot of info available as you approach your first SR shave.
    Take your time, read as much as you can and ask questions.
