    Default Finally a comprehensive book on the hobby

    https://www.amazon.com/Straight-Razo.../dp/B07TD6N95K

    Over 100 pages covering everything from history to making them yourself.

    I think you’ll find it informative.

    I look forward to reading it.

    Not yet but you can download the kindle app for free. Need to get a licensed copy if word to format it for paperback. Haven’t figured out another way yet. Working on it.

    Bought your book. I’ve only just read the chapter in which you describe how you got hooked and starting making razors. I’m hooked. I know I won’t sleep until I finish the book.

    I love the way you write - folksy and conversational.

    Well, you wrote a book and are pushing it on the open forum.

    That's not allowed.
