Hey there everyone!

Just wanted to check in. I have been reading the site for the past couple of weeks, and WOW there is a ton of info here! As you may have deduced from my name, I am Adam, and I live in the peoples republic of Massachusetts. I have shaved with straight razors in the past, mostly the disposable blade type, but on occasion a real straight. I come from a family of barbers and hair dressers, and have been professionally shaved a number of times.

With the recent passing of my grand father, my mother gave me a number of the straight razors that he had used throughout his years as a barber. I sent one out to Lynn to get honed up the right way, and started reading here, and then buying stones to get the others shave ready. While waiting for the razor to come from Lynn, I also started to develop a bad case of RAD, and recently I had to make myself leave Ebay alone for a while

Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself, and say thanks to the members here for a truly nice and respectful forum.

Adam
