    Default New here!

    Hi Gang
    for many years I have used hand applied goo and a Mach, later Fusion cartridge razor. Being a woodturner, some time back, I made my first own brush, and since then I enjoy the different soaps, creams, asb's, etc, etc (have already amassed a small boat load of all kind of samples) and everything involved in the art of wet shaving. Right now I use a DE razor, and I guess will be there for a while before I may even touch a st8.

    Welcome aboard Rudy. That is a great looking brush you have there. If you snoop around the forums for a while, you will be using a straight before you know it. It's addictive and there's no better shave.

    Sorry, I didn't realize that the first picture needed to be turned 90 degrees - hope I can fix this somehow soon.

    Default Welcome

    Welcome to the Straght Razor Place.
    Your shave brush is very nice.
    As mentioned, hanging out on this forum tends to get you addicted to straight razors.
    Enjoy the SRP

    Welcome to SRP.

    That is an extremely nice looking brush.

    I can't wait to see some more of your brushes.

    welcome to srp. if you hang around too much you'll probably take a straight much sooner than you expect. just a fair warning
