Thread: Hello all

Hi
My name is Sigvald and this summer I stumbled upon a knifeshop that sold straight razors and I just had to get one. In my ignorance I went with a Razolution which I've so far only shaved with once. It's sharp, but not truely shave ready if I'm any judge. The experience was mix between horrific and great.

After reading quite a bit on the forum I really want to get properly started shaving with a straight razor. There are so many things that I find awesome with this method of shaving, but I doubt I have to tell you guys since you probably already know them

At the moment I'm looking for the items needed for a proper shave. From what I've read on the forum the razorbrand of my current razor isnt all that, so I'm thinking of getting all the items needed including a new razor.
That way, the idea is that I can practice my honing on the old one and compare to see how I'm doing.

So that's me for now I guess. I'm off to roam the classicshaving.com pages in search of a new razor.

*edit: After posting I noticed the proper section for the introduction treads. I apolegize the error and hope that a moderator could perhaps move this tread. Off to a great start
