    Default Dang! I can't stand it any more...

    I can't wait to shave with my straight. I have pretty much everything I need now except the TM Strop which should be here soon as I know Tony has returned from vacation. (No rush Tony). Looking forward to a really good shave sometime very soon!

    Patience... I must have patience... easy now...

    Now that's good news! Thanks Tony. I know I will be over joyed when it arrives! I keep telling my Girlfriend to be watching for a couple deliveries at any time this week or next. She will likely hide it on me and tease the hell out of me when I get home. I've already offered to give her a good shave so perhaps she won't keep me hanging too long. Of course, I'll need my razors back from Lynn. It's going to be heavenly... I just know it will!

    Thanks Tony!

    Hey Lynn!
    Just got my razors back the other day! I'm going to give them a go this weekend, they look great! Do I need to strop them on the leather before using them or are they ready to go without the strop until the next shave?
    That Dovo SS looks like it honed up really nice! Was it a lot of work?
    I think that's going to be my favorite shaver.

    Thanks very much Lynn for your service. Now I can really enjoy the straight razor world!

    Although I'm pretty sure Lynn will tell you it's unnecessary, in my experience they work better with a light stropping directly before shaving. Just be careful not to drag it over the edge of the strop and knock the edge off before you've had a chance to shave with it. Easy does it and X all the way.
