Thanked: 1Newbie to Straight Razors and this forum
Hi all,
My name is Sean and I've been observing from a distance for about a month now, but finally decided to jump in! I've been shaving all my life with disposable razors and finally was introduced to an alternative (which happened to be a DE) by a friend. I decided to trying jumping straight into (no pun intended), straight razor shaving and am super pumped. Am waiting to receive my razor in a few days and am super pumped. More details to come later, but for now, thanks for having the beginner thread!

Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

Hi and welcome. A good bit of advice is don't strop before the first shave so that you can know what shave ready feels like. Good luck with your shaves and any questions feel free to ask
