    Default Hello from the U.K (Solihull)

    Good afternoon Gents,

    found this his site a couple of weeks ago and liked what I saw, great bunch of guys. I have been using a DE razor for about a month and really like the shave I get. However after reading about straight razors and watching the vids ,that is my next goal. I have spoken with Lynn who has very kindly put me in the right direct as to which straight to start on and the strop to go with it, my order will be in soon.
    i look forward to posting on my first straight shave.
    i live in the U.K and have been a trucker for the past 5yrs, I like cars, pens, watches, razors as well as the odd malt and Gin & T ( Bombay or No3 of course)

    have a great day
