    Default Hello from Missouri

    Hello. My name is Mark. Not only am I new to straight razor shaving, but this is the first time I have ever signed up for a forum, so I hope that I am getting this right! I've been thinking about going to a straight razor for a long time, as I am fed up with paying the high cost of cartridge razors. What a ripoff! I just received my first real straight razor, a Dovo Astrale from Straight Razor Designs, along with a strop and accessories. It's a beautiful razor with its black ivory wood scales, and a lot lighter than I was expecting. Got the Lynn Abrams DVD World of Straight Razor Shaving and am looking forward to my first straight razor shave!

    Thanks for the welcome, gents! I'm from the other side of the state from Cape, south of Kansas City, but would like to get over to learn about honing some day. Thanks again!

    Hi and welcome. Good luck with your shaves. Don't know that you will save money if your anything like most of us but at least what you buy you can have for life.
