Thread: Greetings and Salutations

Just picked up my first SR at a local pawn shop for $20. It's a George Ibberson & Co. Double Sharp. I came across this site from doing research for my new razor. I've never shaved with a SR or DE, but I'm looking to start soon. The Double Sharp is close to shave ready and I have a vintage Bismarck on the way as well. I'll send those out to be sharpened and hope to sharpen them myself from there on out. I have some soap samples on the way from Maggard, and I need to track down a shave brush.

I have a lot to learn, and I look forward to any insight and suggestions.

Welcome to SRP

If you have Brad in your corner, you will be well off to a good start!

SRP is a great resource for all things related to straights, you should find allthe info you could ever need on here, and then some.

Should you have any questions, feel free to ask, we will try our darndest to help you out!

good luck!

Yeah, Brad and Casie came highly recommended. I have done some shopping and you can't beat their soap sampler prices. I'm trying to track down a vintage shave brush. I also picked up a beat up Wade and Butcher for $8 off the Bay today. I'll do some before and after restoration pics.

Any info on my George Ibberson & Co. SR would be great! I posted the back story and some pics in the Razor sub.

Welcome to SRP
