Finally being social

Hello everyone. I have been around for awhile and never got around to introducing myself. I started out shaving with a DE and eventually found my way here. I got curious enough to give straights a try and started cruising the antique store for mantiques. I took the hard path and started with an old muller Spanish point made in Solingen and honed it myself. This of course was a very steep learning curve and it took quite awhile to get a comfortable shave. But at this point after honing and shaving with my own razors and making mistakes along the way I get the best most comfortable shaves of my life. It's great taking something that used to be a chore and making it a meditation that I look forward to. Everyone here has been an inspiring mentor whether new or old and I thank you.

Hello, and welcome to SRP!

Hi and welcome. It may be the hardest path but can also be the most rewarding. Happy shaving

Great to see you've come out into the light
Hopefully you will be able to help shed some light for others out there they may also be learning the hard way and lurking in the dark still or even those of us I the light already

Welcome! It IS a great place to seek info, and it seems as if you're well on your way!
