Along with "burning" questions I always look at anything business related too so this caught my eye.

I love John's idea and I'd like to submit another thought.....

2 or 3 months ago something was mentioned in regards, to my attending an East coast show...and the jest of the story ended up being; wouldn't it be great if there were "Straight Razor" shows....the same as they do "Custom Knife Shows".

A place where all Traditional wet-shavers could gather....there could be ROWS of vintage and custom straight razors to choose from and swap for ( and of course DE's) Vendor's who are in the trade could be there....custom strops, hones, shaving soaps etc. Vendors could demonstrate their wares and we could all meet each other!

The more experienced could do a Seminar of sorts regarding their techniques....featuring Lynn at 2 p.m. kinda thing Or having Tony doing actual demonstrations of the proper way to strop your razor! Oh...the possibilities are so endless.......

Maybe folks could start small local chapters...

Forgive me for sorda Hi-Jacking the thread...but I would love to see something like John's idea develop or trade shows for Straight Razor enthusiasts.
