Thread: Atlanta GA & the SE States - Meetup Feb 4th-5th 2012

Just a reminder for everyone that if you need to make reservations at The Highland Inn, you should get on the stick and make them within the next week!

The time is drawing near and I for one am very excited!

Was out on a shaving safari today and picked up a bottle of Osage Rub to raffle off. Also stopped in a couple of antique stores up here in Cobb county. Quite a few Old Spice Mugs were spotted, a variety of straights and DE razors in various condition, and a few brushes were spotted. Actually picked up a Torrey that I'll be posting in another form shortly. If anyone is interested or has some time Saturday morning let me know and I'll provide locations. Looking forward to the meetup.

Assuming you mean someone good at it Hopefully there will be a few working towards their diploma during this meetup. I am fixing to get a few lessons from some of the uber-meisters on the roster. I started wet shaving 8 months ago and to this point I have honed a couple dozen razors and have always gotten excellent smooth no irritation shaves off of them. If you aren't looking to win any prizes I think I can guarantee a decent shave just box up anything you want honed and send er my way and I will do my best, no charge just include return shipping.

I found one at an antique store for $18, need to research it. It was a full hollow ground and "sang" pulling my thumb across it. It was old and in its orig box.
Bought a Rolls Razor, its missing its Honing Stone but the Strop leather was in good condition. I tried honing the blade myself with my knife stones. Will try to shave with it tomorrow...
If that old one is a 6/8 I may spring for it and send it to you Daryl.
