Thread: New Old Guy

Hey, from the rocky mountain west. I thought I'd join the SRP as a contributing member and not just leverage the information available on this wonderful site. I still pull around the load of a day job, and then some, so I can't spend the time here I'd like, but I do hope that I can add something along the way. I've been through all the double edge and triple edge razors looking for the best shave available, but not until I started to slow down and appreciate life a little better did I turn to the straight razor last year. What a nice change. Less irritation in a trouble spot under my chin and a rekindled appreciation for fine, intricate things like the pursuit of the sharpest edge possible. I found the the SRP to be my happy place and look forward to a few laughs along the way.

Welcome! Joining makes a lot of sense.

Welcome to the forum!
I'm looking forward to read some of your experiences because it seems you shave with a straight longer than me

from one old fart (or at least that's what my wife calls me says I was born old) to another welcome. glad to have you with the SRP. looking forward to your seasoned experiences and stores of the west.

Welcome. There are a lot of members and a lot of information. Enjoy the journey!
