Hello all,

I've been hauting the forums a while and have gotten the bug... Long story short. I got a Dovo from SRD, and a strop from classic, a hand me down brush and mug from dad.... Three total shaves, with two nicks and one cut... and a happy camper. I am beginning to realize the relaxing therapy of the shave... some nice morning ritual. (afternoon for me!) The closeness of the shave is improving, and I suspect it will get better with practice...

I really just wanted to say thanks for all the nice folks who take the time to share knowledge and their experiences. I'd never had the courage to pick up a staight razor without the information I found on this site.

Oh and I've noticed something else, even though I'm very pleased with my new razor, I can't stop looking and lusting at classifieds..... ( If I start another hobby my wife will kill me!!)

Thanks to all,

Brock
