I have noticed that a lot of the members have interest in nostalgia. This might give some insight into why someone might shave straight. I enjoy sitting in my 1910 Koken barber chair and having a bowl full of my favorite pipe tobacco. I like old coleman lanterns, no propane, and the thought of being in an old us parks log lodge. I think it would be fun to drive to Alaska. I still camp in a tent. I like to do things the old way. I like to shave as my grandfather did. I appreciate a fine blued rifle in a walnut stock. I think muzzle loading rifles should use flint. I miss the Hamms beer ads. I like home made wine and a good beer, with flavor, not the over carbonated beer flavored water the mega breweries make today. In a world of stainless steel, carbon fiber, and computers it feels good to touch the past.
These are just ramblings from a middle aged idiot tiring to touch his heritage.
