Thread: Another new guy in Minnesota

Hello all. Today I had the pleasure of meeting another SRP new guy, Minnebrerw ( Scott O'Brien).

Scott brought along a vintage straight razor that he had purchased recently that needed some TLC.
So we looked it over and decided on a plan. Today I simply took and cleaned,sanded & buffed the blade.
Here is the end result........

Next he will be ordering a set of scales and then come back over & we will take off the old scales, install the new ones and then hone the razor.

Here is a pic of Scott...


Scott and I talked about a number of things like hones, beard prep, shaving technique etc.
I am making this thread to encourage you new guys to link up with other established SRP members in your area. It shortens your learning curve and brings you in touch with other straight shavers.
