Greetings from the NC coast
Hey guys, I'm just a fireman from Bladen county NC. God put me here to help people so thats what I do, its my job. Im a Fireman and EMT for New Hanover County Fire Rescue. Shortly after graduating high school I decided my granddads were a lot cooler than my friends ever would be. So thats when I set a goal, to become a real man. I always had a job but I learned what it meant to "work", I learned how to build things, I learned that an axe is not outdated, and I traded in video games for craftsmen tools. But next was shaving, my beard was getting thicker and it seemed razors were getting worse. I have tried Gillete, Schick, and Bic as I am sure all of you have and had my hair ripped out not shaven. So finally I picked up my grandfathers safety razor, he left it to me when he passed away along with a rifle. All I knew about it was that on December 7th 1941 that razor was in Pearl Harbor and that was good enough for me. After about a year and a half of using it I am happier than ever but thats not where this story ends. On fathers day this year I had to work at the firehouse so I gave my remaining granddad a call. He asked me to swing by to see him the next day so thats exactly what I did. When I got to his house he handed me a Boker straight blade, it was his dads. Now I am in pursuit of a new hobby and I hope you guys are here to help. I look forward to meeting you all in the future. Feel free to check out my razor here and give any input. I would love to learn more about it.
