Doing my homework before jumping in.
Hey guys I've been wet shaving for a few months, I really like the DE way of things, but I've always wanted to get into straight razor shaving.
I've read over the beginners guide, and I'm working my way through various forums and other articles.
I have an old strop that was given to me when my family members learned about my new hobby of vintage shaving. I'm going to learn some more about strop repair and try and get it in some sort of functional shape.
I've read something about how many users screw up their first strop so I'd rather mess up this old junker than a nice new one anyway!
I currently plan on either getting a cheap blade on the classifieds here or getting a sight unseen deal from whipped dog.
I'm open to any advice, and I would surely appreciate it!
