Wow thank you very much for all the replies!

I will keep looking through the BST section to see if anything pops up and I will also look through the Classic Edge catalogue.

As far as I can tell to get started I need a straight razor, a brush, soap, and a strop. Am I missing anything?

I was also wondering if it is possible to change the scales eventually or if that would through off the balance of the blade.

Thank you very much,

Risible
