    Hi, Parker, and welcome to SRP! You're sure getting off to a great start -- a razor from a highly respected SRP member! WOW!!
    I do hereby formally nominate shooter74743 for this week's SRP Silver Shaver Award!
    Parker, I think you will do just fine here at SRP. Remember, all shave-related questions have answers that can be found here.

    One thing you will find is that we all have different opinions, but you will also find that we all have your best interest in mind. My recommendation to you is get yourself a good starter strop like a "filly" over at www.ruprazor.com or the likes of a Big Mama or Big Daddy from the bay as I have heard good about them, a shave brush like a Vanderhagen or tweezerman, quality shave soap (Proraso would be a great foundation soap for you).

    I have given specific recommendations because of all of the junk out there. Feel free to contact me in about anything straight razor related & I'll do what I can to keep you out of the ditch. .

    You noticed I didn't mention a razor.

    You get these three underlined things & show me you have them, (I will request a pic with a particular background of my choice like a newspaper) I will provide you with your first properly honed vintage razor.
    See now THAT is cool!

    Parker, you really must post pix of your razor (along w/a current newspaper)!

    Once I get my strop I'll post a pic of that, along with my brush, bowl, etc. Then when I get the straight I will also post that! I'm super excited!!

    Settle down, Parker. I know you're young and eager, but we don't need a case of spontaneous combustion here
