Thanked: 1371Hi from a newbie...
Hi everyone!
I am new here, and new to straight razor shaving...
I made the mistake of buying my first razor without doing any research. I got a cheap Simco and a pair of Maliks off of Ebay. Needless to say that I have been unable to shave with these razors. I watched several videos on stropping, and have stropped like crazy, but shaving is miserable at best.
So... I just ordered two shave ready razors from the classifieds here, and am ready to get started.
I am planning on shaving my head once I get proficient enough at shaving my face.
Can the Simco or the Maliks be honed and become usable razors, or are they better off going in my tackle box?
