I stumbled upon this website about two months ago and found the art of straight razor shaving fascinating. Eager to learn I ordered a razor and strop on line and have been using the straight razor ever since and I couldn't be happier with the decision. I'm 18 and all I can say is that I'll be a straight razor man for the rest of my life. That being said I'm still not a shaving purist (I don't use a brush or soap, I'm using up what's left of a can of Gilette foamy cream). I live in Northern Kentucky and will be going to school in South Carolina in the fall, so I was wondering if anyone knew of any specialty shave shops along the way where I could pick up a brush and soap etc. Nobody in the Northern Kentucky area seems to carry these types of items.

Thanks
Ricky
