Thanked: 4942Another Great Straightrazorplace Give Away!!
Well guys it's about time again for another straight razor give away.
We will be having a drawing on the .com site and we will be giving
away about 17 shave ready straight razors. We will have a sticky
thread for all the new guys who want to be included to list their
names and email addresses and then in a couple of weeks will draw for
who gets what. This time we have razors like a Dubl Duck Goldedge and
Geneva dedicated by Hal Wilson, a Trusteel donated by John Crowley
plus razors like a Griffon Carbo Magnetic, Genco Gold Seal, Pippin,
Korn and a bunch of others. These razors were donated to the cause by
Hal, John, myself, Rick Hantz and Richard Martino. Hope I didn't leave
anyone out.
This a rich tradition started at SRP for new guys to get to shave with
a honed razor. Our membership has always been known for how much help
we provide to new people and our generousity. What a great example we
have set and continue to live by.
I would also like to thank both David Wessell and AZJoe for their continued help in keeping this site up and running. You guys are awesome.
Thanks Guys and always Have fun.

Thanked: 4I'm really looking forward to this!
Not many groups have a method of distributing the knowledge and wealth among the new people, so this makes this great group even more special.
Whether you win a razor or not, no one loses in this situation!

Thanked: 0It really warms you to know that there are people out there who help for the sake of being helpful, I cant think of another group ( let alone on the internet ) who are this generous.
I just hope that one day I can pass a honed razor to a lil newbie, if my honing ever gets there that is.

I think JL and I signed up for straight university at about the same time, if we still count then being a part of the generous offer would be great!
