Thanked: 2Oooo! I wanna try!
Hello all!
Ive been looking into trying a straight for a while. I've found my way to a very good wet shave routine with my run of the mill Mach 3... but I go all out on my prep and have a favored product line with my oil, soap/brush and so on and so forth.... Time for the next step and I cant wait!
But I have patience. I understand what its gonna take and how long to get it right.
So first theing first is I needed a razor. A friend a work stopped by and handed me two freebies.
A cheap looking "Fromm" rasor with replaceable blades... I had no idea they even made something like this.
And a traditional straight. On first look I thoguht it was no good. But after finding this place and doing some looking I find that I may have something rather nice.
So my long and babbling post of an introduction finally comes down to my first two questions.
Is this saveable? (I'm fairly sure it is...)
And where do I send it to get it repaired/restored/honed?
any guestamate on how much I can expect to pay to get it done?
My freebie J.R. Torrey .... please excuse the tape measure.. I needed the prop to get the light to bounce off the blade right to really show the flaws.
