Not a straight razor shaver yet; still usin' the DE. But, got a Wapi and a strop on the way from kenrup. Hope to be baptized by naked steel this weekend. Let y'all know how it goes.

Cool!!! In the meantime, please feel free to visit the wiki for an overview of the straight razor world and to help answer any question that you may have at this point.

Al raz.
Good luck! Should be an exciting day when the straight arrives.
DON'T DO IT!!! You'll catch a bad case of RAD!!!
Kidding.
:D Good Luck and have fun.
My little brother got a Wapi and strop from Ken he has good stuff so enjoy your new razor and strop. And welcome to SRP :gl:
already got it. I have already allocated the next few months savings to shaving stuff. I got into wetshaving nearly a year ago as a way to save money. Man, was I wrong; it worked fine for the first several months, but now I am buying left and right and spending more time on ebay than I care to. I have always been anti-fragrance, mainly due to allergies, but lately I have been using a plethora of odors post-shave. It is a legitimate sickness.Quote:

I'm going the same thing, just about a half dozen shaves worth of experience. Good luck and glad you're here.
great news. you cant beat a real straight :D plus all the honing and stropping. it makes for a satisfiying experience when you hone and strop your own blade and get the whole aspect of str8 shaving to come together for a great shave
