Hi Francesco, and welcome to SRP! As a Winnipegger-in-exile, it's good to hear a voice from home, and especially good to hear there's someone local who is available for honing. I have not yet been able to convince anyone from back there to follow me down the straight shaving rabbit hole, but you never know...
Are there any decent shaving supply shops in Wpg these days? I'll probably be coming home for a couple of weeks this summer and am always looking for new stuff and to help out a local business.

Stay away from the antique shop owned by the turkish guy downtown; he wants way too much for the razors he's got for sale :)
You should try the antique shops in Toronto! They've definitely caught on. I found a whole stash of straights in one of them but the prices were outrageous. $90.00 for a Gotta like you found (maybe not the same size) but the blade was entirely covered in thick red rust.
