Just thought I'd pop in and introduce myself.
My name is Kevin (no surprise, considering my forum name—the '78' refers to my high school grad year, NOT my age. I'm older, but not quite THAT ancient!) and although I've been wet-shaving for a number of years with DE razors, I have just begun the process of straight razor shaving. I recently acquired my first two SRs. My first strop. and my first stones for honing. I have YET to shave with my newly-acquired razors, but this situation will soon change.
I look forward to participating in these forum threads, and hopefully can contribute something of worth to the conversations. There is so much information and experience here that I have spent weeks reading and taking notes on the whole SR process. Now I get to participate.
