Well I just purchased my first straight razor and I am looking forward to using it. All my items should be coming in this week and let the learning begin.

The razor I got a Joseph Elliot, it has the Elliot on the side, I got pictures in "The Untouchables" club section. If anyone knows anything about these blades I am a history buff.

I did get a strop and then a honing stone, natural purple welsh with slurry stone called Llyn Melynllyn,

As far as soaps I am looking at getting different types and see which I like the best.
