Hello all, I'm just getting started with straight razors and am still in my reasearch phase before buying. Looks like I got lucky and found this Forum before making some costly mistakes. I've already learned a good bit of helpful info from reading through older posts but I've still got lots more reading to do.
I was looking at several vintage razor on ebay and decided to research them before bidding, that lead me to Tony Miller's site at thewellshavedgentleman.com which in turn lead me here. Feeling really fortunate to have stumbled on this wealth of information just as I'm getting started and it appears all the goods and services I could possibly need are right here in one place.
At the moment I'm looking at a Wostenholm and an Engels and well as maybe a DOVO (through Tony's site). I've read some favorable things about the first and last but not much on Engels - still searching. I'm sure I'll have lots of questions in time but for now I'm reading all I can here. Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. Thanks again for the great website,
Jack
