Hey Guys,
I’m new here although I have been lurking and reading (most of the forum) to educate myself in the various nuances of straight shaving. I haven’t posted because I have been able to search and find everything I needed, but this valuable resource and the willingness of this community has left me obligated to say Hi.
I started out with a TI purchased through Classic Shaving and honed by Lynn as a guide for sharpness. A month of straight shaving has me regretting I did not discover this long ago, shaving is now a joy! I am to the point in my honing where most of my 15 razors are HHT sharp and I am fine tuning via the shave.
The only down side is this acquisition disorder thing, (if it were drugs I’d be dead) I find myself waiting for the mailman A LOT….I have also purchased Bill’s CD and plan on building some scales this winter, already ordering material.
Anyhow, thanks again.
Miles

Welcome aboard Miles. You need to curb your RAD so there are going to be more razors out there on the market for the rest of us

Welcome to the club, Miles. Don't worry about the RAD, or the RSA either. It is easily controled...the first step to curing a problem is to admit you have a...BRB, the mailman is coming down the street...

But why are you calling it a "problem"?

Thanks for the welcome.
Sometime in the future I may make a feeble attempt to deal with the disorder, but not today!

You guys mean to say that you dont know your mail mans name yet? I've only been at this for 3 weeks and I know the both USPS drivers, the UPS driver and the Fedex driver!!! =P Ok... I dont know the UPS or the fedex guy... but I do know both the USPS drivers and I had a broken heart when the UPS driver stopped outside my house and when I got to his truck he told me that he had the wrong house
Im still holding a grudge!
