    Thumbs up SRP 10 Year Anniversary!!

    Hi Guys,

    Last month was the 10th Anniversary since the original Yahoo SRP was founded. It seems like a million years ago and yesterday at the same time.

    The wet shaving environment has now grown from obscurity to an industry large enough to attract major businesses.

    I was given the privilege to do a guest blog on Mantic59's Blog Spot and have attached it here. Mantic59's Shaving Journal Thanks Mark!

    This site remains the authoritative forum for straight razor information and contributes to all wet shaving information. What has made it so successful has been a great membership and the best bunch of Moderators and Super Moderators in the world. Many of these folks have been around since the old Yahoo days. We are a site not driven by special interests or vendors here just to take money out of this growing environment. Our mission is the same as it was on day one; to preserve and promote the art of straight razor shaving! We started this mission with a desire to pay it forward and a great vision of helping other people to become successful and enjoy straight razor shaving and all the wonderful aspects of wet shaving. I truly believe this spirit is alive and well here.

    I would like to thank each and every one of you for your participation, wish you a great Holiday Season and hope that you will all help the next guy learn about what a great treasure we have here!

    Have fun,

    Lynn

    Lynn,

    Thanks for bringing this old world art back to mainstream. I for one would not have had nearly the success without this group (though I probably would have more money in my pocket).

    Congratulations on the 10 years, the success and a job well done.

    David

    Lynn, a sincere thank you to yourself and the moderators. Without this site, I would have never ventured into straight razor shaving, and my life would have been poorer for it.

    This site has helped revive a lost art and you and the moderators should be very proud.

    Thanks again for this great site - it is a rare gem on the web!

    Mark

    Many thanks Lynn for clearing the land and installing the runway. I wouldn't have ever been able to successfully shave/hone straight razors had it not been for SRP.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
