Parker, you've got GUTS to try a straight razor. I still haven't tried one.

Oh, your Forum decorum is VERY GOOD! Wish everyone on my old
Forum was as good.

See you the next time I'm in Vegas.

steve (Yes, that is my normal Forum sig.)

Haha yeah you will need to tell me some of those stories! Next time your in town, we'll make sure you try out a straight

Good show Parker, GOOD SHOW! Just "pass it on" in the future....

Yep I definitely will!

OK, it's almost midnight. Parker, you've got school (oops!) nothing in the morning, go to bed!

Seriously, am I old enough to have a nephew who is shaving? (Look at your grey hair, uncle Steven!)

I think so:-) you have quite a few already! Just like a new addition.

Well, I've just read this entire thread, pretty cool. Congratulations to you Parker, it looks as if you are off to a great start! I think this thread took off the way it has is very much do to you. People like to see a well spoken, respectful, and appreciative young man, and you; are that young man. It will be interesting to use you as a case study of sorts. Starting as young as you are, you can really put to task quite a few, "lifetime" guarantees. Take care, donv PS, I really enjoyed the video!

Wow thanks! And glad you liked it! And just read you comment on the video! Nobody else pointed that out, and I didn't catch it either. I really was lucky!

Parker,

Had to quit early last night, but read the 3 new pages this morning. You're a very lucky young man to have the family that you have. It shows in you and carries over to all of us on this forum and makes us want to participate in it!! You've thanked most of the SRP members, but I want to thank you and your family for the privilege of letting us get to know you and them. THANK YOU!!!

All the best to you and the family!!!

Fondest Regards,

Howard

I hereby nominate Parker for this week's SRP Silver Shaver Award!

Hey Parker,

Just chiming in about razor storage. I treat mine like firearms: they are objects that inspire great curiosity and have the potential to cause great harm. In addition, they're easy to damage to a point that requires hours of honing to repair. Because of these properties, I keep them locked up whenever I have them away from home or have any in a place where I don't know everybody. I'd hate for an object that should be in my control to cause anybody harm.

...so, whatever you come up with for storage, make it lockable.

That's my two cents.

Best wishes to you.
