Hello all,
I'm new to the straight razor world, and so far, so good. I've been using my new razor for about a week. I think I'm experiencing a lot of the same beginner learning curve as you read in every other thread, but I'm at a disadvantage in that I live in the UAE where it's pretty unlikely that I can meet up with a local guru. For the time being, I think I'm entirely reliant on "distance learning." The sharpness of my razor has seemed to degrade significantly and I'm sure it has to do with my stropping.
Does anyone know of a knowledgable person in either Abu Dhabi or Dubai?

Thanks
