Even better actually. They had generations of straight razor shavers directly on hand fo immediate feedback, and plenty of ash and animal fat mixed together (plus a hundred other great ideas) for honing pastes. All we got is SRP.

I will strongly second the recommendation for Lynn Abrams DVD. Lynn is the founder of this site and the original on Yahoo Groups. We have another member who is into re-enactment. His name is Kit. Send him a PM.

Don't thank me. That will cost you 4lbs of meat and all the horns so I can make a couple of sets of scales

Tim,
I do F&I reenacting, and started straight shaving as part of that hobby. Here is a great site to get a historical over view of what razors looked like in different time periods.
