Woot!!
I remember the anticipation!! Good times!
Break a leg!
Just remember calm and slowly when shaving. Good luck
Good luck and smooth shaves!
Don't you love finding those priority mail packages waiting for you!?!
Oh, yes I do. That strop needs to hurry up and get here already!
If The blade was pro honed and shave ready,use it,don't need strop first time out,have fun.
I can't. The brush I ordered is coming with the strop.
Got it, is the blade pro honed? If so I would not strop it from the gitgo.
Yes, it was pro honed.
Have fun man:)Quote:
