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.

Send them a PM I'm sure one or both would be happy to help you out.
As far as getting started, check out the Buy Trade Sell section for a decent razor to learn on at a fairly inexpensive price. Then you can go out and start spending all kinds of big bucks! :tu
Welcome to Wonderland. No wait, I mean SRP.

Hello and Welcome to SRP kylearch.
My only piece of advice to you is make sure you take up Razorfeld on his kind offer....Do not pass it up!

Razorfeld, I am in Forest Grove quite often. I would be thrilled to have a chat with you! I don't have any particular questions at the moment but I will be sure to ask when I do.
Welcome! Yes, there are some very fine razors out there.
I went to Portland Razor Co. a couple weeks ago, they are a nice group of people. Here is a video I took during my visit.

Hi and welcome aboard. For the most part they all shave the same but the fancy ones are nice
Welcome to SRP! You are located near a couple of great mentors should you find an opportunity to get together one-on-one with either of them. Sometimes local get together will pop up...another great way to learn a lot quickly.
Enjoy your trip down the rabbit hole. It's a blast!
