Met up with joshmpdx form B&B last night for the first Portland get together. Good times. We got to check out some razors and a couple hones. And then honed up a couple razors Brought in some basic tools, sanding jig, dremel w/polishing bits yada yada.... All in all I ended up with one of my razors honed up, a loaner to try out for a couple weeks. And the simple pleasure of actually having a conversation with someone who has similar interests. If you get a chance to meet up with some local folks, do it. It'll be a memorable experience
