Hello SRP, I am delving into the world of straight razors and am very happy to have found this forum!
I have been DE shaving for a few years and felt it was finally time to look into SRs, mostly due to the wicked_edge subreddit and some amazing razors someone bought there...totally jealous.
Anyone local to the Hillsboro area? Know of good shops to drool over...er uh, visit? I'll have to get down to Portland Razor Co someday soon.
