Hey Guys,

I just rediscovered the book which originally got me into straight razor shaving. The wife got it for me as a joke because she hated my stubble and boy does she regret buying the book now!

Anyway I have some questions here. I place this post in Newbie Corner as the book may prove of some help to other new starts. But whilst that is the case I would also be very interested to find out if anyone else had read it and what their opinions of it was. Most of all i'd like to hear from experienced Sraight razor shavers- particularly Lynn- on their thoughts on the book. For a long time until I found this site it was my only guidance and became something of a shaving bible to me. One source of input can be risky if its the wrong input.

The book is called;

Sharp Practice; The real mans guide to shaving
by Anders Larsen

ISBN: 0-593-05730-9
printed by Bantam Press

I would encourage all straight razor shavers to have a look at it and offer any feedback and reviews of the book. I have found precious little printed literature of this type in the UK and feel any that is made should be accurate.

I look foward to your responses,

Sandy
