So I have a strop, shaving soap, a brush, and a straight razor. The razor may be blunt, or it may be in the hands of an incompetent - at any rate, my first experience trying to shave with it did not go well. When I try to reenact what I see in a Youtube demonstration video, it all gets a bit Sweeney Todd. Is there still a TC Straight Razor Club in existence? I could really use some experienced advice...
