Thread: Seeking South Texas mentor

Hey gents,
I am a long time shaver, but new to the honing game. I bought a set of Naniwa superstones and am wondering if there are any mentors available in the South Texas area. I am currently in San Antonio. I dropped an email to Ken Rupkalvis, but haven't heard back quite yet.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Cheers,
J

Ken is a great way to go. His a great guy and an X teacher. A patent man .
His stops are amazing and affordable.
You won't go wrong with Ken

Also contact Sharptonn in Houston. Very knowledgeable.

If you would like to meet quite a few masters in one place at one time, you gotta make this: http://straightrazorpalace.com/get-togethers-meetings/123898-4th-annual-north-central-texas-razor-meet-charlie-lewis-razor-workshop.html

I'm not exactly sure what part of Texas he lives in but you might also check with Larry at Whipped Dog Straight Razor Shaving Equipment, a heck of a nice guy to deal with or talk to on the phone. Check out his web site and give him a call.

Thanks a ton, gents. I am reaching out to these guys. I know it may take a bit longer for responses, due to the holidays.

Is there a South/East Texas meetup like the North Texas one? It looks fantastic.

Nothing will be like that one; and many of us will be traveling distances even greater than the distance across Texas.

Dang, should have kept my Luscombe 8AE, now it's the T-bird or the Hawwg for jaunts.
