Welcome to SRP! Seems like you are off to a fine start on two shaving fronts. Way to go. Let us know if you have any questions. Cheers!

Hi and welcome. Having a brother start with you is great and sharing you guys can try twice as much stuff along the way. Good luck with your shaves

They are plenty sharp!! Enjoy!! I would start with the one with the smile and rounded toe, a few of the others have square points and those can cause cuts/nicks easier for a beginner.

Welcome and congratulations on having your brother with you on the journey. Two heads are better than one!

Welcome to SRP

I am glad you got in touch with RodB. He does a very good job honing straight razors. Next time your in the Twin Cities be sure to come over to my place.

Hideho people....Greetings from Chicagoland. I am new to using a Straight Razor...as you may be able to guess from my Username. I have personally gotten sick of how much it is costing me for cartage to shave...and have elected to move to something more classic. In the past few months, I have made a huge switch from normal major brand shaving cream to using a shave oil, a richer cream, and a shave brush. I figured the next logical step was to start using a straight razor for a cleaner shave.

GCM,

Welcome to the forum, glad to have you on board. But, if you would, go to
Member Introductions and just above the reply section, select "Post New Thread" and start a thread for yourself. Helps to keep things in order so members aren't trying to reply to two different situations for two different members in one thread.

See you there!!

Best Regards,

Howard
