    Hey Mike, welcome to the SRP!

    My suggestion is to make sure that the str8razors you are receiving are both honed and shave tested by someone from the SRP. There is nothing worse than trying to learn on a dull blade.

    Feel free to post a question at any time and keep us posted on your progress.

    Hey Mike,
    Welcome to SRP. Again, the wiki is a great source of info and much more organized than the forums. But feel free to ask us any questions. If you need your razors honed, feel free to take me up on my standing free honing offer.

    I'd make sure the razors you have on the way are made shave ready before you touch them to your face!
