    Yeah this is the same progression as I took. Its an addicting hobby, but so enjoyable. Did you ever think you would enjoy shaving? Me neither. LOL. Welcome to the club bill. Let us know what you get from larry.

    Hi and welcome. Sounds like the boys have steered you in the right direction. The only thing I would recommend is a styptic pencil. Good luck
    My wife calls me......... Can you just use Ed

    The only thing I've used a styptic pencil for, and I don't mean to say they are unrequired for shaving uses, is when I took a chunk out of the side of my knee falling off my longboard. Works good for stopping the red stuff, but boy it sure does sting!

    Welcome to the 'Place'

    If you practice on newspaper rather than a cheap strop you will do less damage to the razor & your cheap strop.
