    Forgive me this outburst, but that easily made my week so much better.

    I live 10-15 minutes south of the post office, so this is the most convenient (and most wanted) learning experience I can remember. I was honestly dreading battering my pretty (and expensive) razors against a cold, unforgiving stone... Now I can learn from one of the best.

    I don't mind not being able to visit the store/warehouse, I just wanted to find a way to learn more about the craft other than trial by fire, because Mr. Miller makes too nice of strops for that :P

    Thank you so much, Mr. Abrams.

    Indeed!

    Considering my Xmas gift was a Tony Miller Horsehide and Nylon, It would seem my holidays are going to involve a lot of straight razory-ry. And I would not have it any other way

    I actually intended to bring my Dovo Best Quality, and TM Latigo and Cotton... since my Horsehide and Nylon is being mailed to a campus mailbox, I won't have that at the time... However, I have wanted a chance to (1.) get a feel for the SRD Latigo and Webbed fabric, since I've heard good things about them and (2.) see/maybe try out a 2.5 inch strop... I've only ever really used a 3inch...

    This is going to be a marvelous opportunity
