    Default Better late than never

    Hey Folks

    Just reviewing previous posts and suddenly realized I've never introduced myself.

    My name is Graham and I live in Toronto Ontario

    I've been using a straight for about three years and currently own 26, along with an equal number of DEs and injectors. Over the last two years I have been learning to hone, and have had enough success to keep me both happy and shaved.

    My other interests are books and birds.

    Best Regards

    Goshawk

    I hope no one shoots me or bans me for saying this. I would like to invite you to join the shave den as well, I hang out in both places and like them both. You will know me over there becuase I use the same screen name.

    As far as your shave collection goes, my g-d how do you manage to get around in the shave den without bumping into things.

    Welcome aboard.

    Spend too much time here and before you know it you'll have more razors than you know what to do with. (or is that an oxymoron).

    Thanks for the responses - no, no occult stuff. I never had any talent for it. I'm trying to post a picture from my desktop of my W&B 7/8ths full hollow

    I hope it works

    That's my all time favourite bowl; Japanese porcelain with a simple blue cross hatch pattern.

    How do you like your 7/8ths W&B? I have to admit I wasn't sold on it for the first few shaves. I found the width awkward and the tang a bit too short. I'd never let it go now, though. Once I got the feel of it, it shaved beautifully.

    Thanks for the invite. I've never looked in at the Shave Den, but I will now.

    Thanks again, everyone, for the friendly greeting
