    Default G'day

    Hey all,

    My name is Andrew.

    I am from the Hunter Valley in New South Wales, Australia. It's about 2hrs north of Sydney. Lots of good wine and fresh produce. I would love to learn more and find out more about straight razors or cut throat razors as they are known for the most part here in AUS.

    I'm specifically looking to restore some old razors and use them.

    Hope to learn from you all.

    Cheers

    Welcome to the 'Place'
    Head 2 hours south if you hit any brick walls with your restores.
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

    Welcome to the forum,
    It looks like you could be well set up by andrew and bongo and their kind offers, i saw your other thread about your 4 razors, from what i can see they will need a little work before use.
    Once you are set to go I have no doubt you will have a fair few questions, in the meantime i would recomend reading some of the other threads in the beginners section, you will notice themes with both the questions and answers, that way you will be a bit prepared, there is also a lot of info in the wiki.

    Forgot to add, I've also got a balsa strop with Crox you are welcome to.
    It's nice to be important, but more important to be nice
