    Hi and welcome to the SRP family.

    One of these days we are going to have a member with two razors and a barbers hone and Crox on Balsa/strop....period.

    Maybe they are out there, like BigFoot, staying out of sight...

    Sorry, just having a moment...

    Welcome, you are amongst friends.

    Smooth shaving...

    Welcome. If you want a "cheap" shave, grow a beard. This is not the place that you think it is. People here will tell you about another SR, hone, stone, strop or soaps and soon you will be checking them out and find yourself going to antique shops, junk stores, estate sales and even eBay trying to find something even more unusual, and before you know it any savings you may have had is gone. Any friends you may have had will be alienated by you trying to foist SR shaving on them as your passion for it grows and pretty soon you will be found by a loved one sitting in the middle of your "shaving den" clutching your favorite razor sniffing shaving soap and rocking back and forth babbling incoherently.
