Hello everyone.

I have recently become interested in straight razor shaving and this seems like the place to be. I made the mistake of buying a cheap razor to start with and my first try at shaving with it was poor, but that did not discourage me. I recently bought a dovo best quality from straightrazordesigns and have been very happy with it. The difference in the hone of the two razors is tremendous. I have started to get pretty comfortable with using the razor, I did not cut myself on the last two shaves. I have also purchased a set of hones to start learning with. I am going to use the cheap razor to practice with before I try anything else. I have been reading a lot here on the forums and other places trying to gather as much knowledge as possible. I just wanted to say hi and hopefully I can contribute to this site.
