Hey all,

I just wanted to introduce myself real quick. My name is Ruben and I've finally registered on this site after probably a year or more of going to this site for information. I've wanted to dive into the world of shaving with a straight razor for the longest time but didn't know where to start. I have finally purchased several razors and a strop to get started after researching the do's and don'ts of what I should and shouldn't buy. I'm still not completely sure what I've purchased is what I'm really looking for but I'm sure I'll find out in the near future. I joined this site finally because I figure, as I start using a straight razor, I'll want to consult most of you with all my questions. I look forward to attempting that great shave I've received from barbers and I'm sure I'll be posting my own questions on here soon enough.
