Just made my first purchase: New in Minneapolis
Hello! Very excited to become a member of the site!
After wanting to try entry into the world of straight razors for some time but being daunted by prices of quality blades, I finally made my first purchase today. It's a "vintage" razor, stamped "American Razor Co New York NY" and though obviously old, appears to be in good shape. I'm hopeful that after a good cleaning and honing, it will be serviceable for me to get a start! It definitely has a slight "frown" to it, but I'm thinking that could be worked out.

I'm not sure if anyone knows anything about it, but if so, what can you tell me? Anybody think it's worth looking into getting honed?
Also, wondering if anyone knows anything about places to get blades honed in the Twin Cities?
