Been a lurker for a while but decided to join up.

I have been thinking about trying straight razor shaving for a while now after switching to DE shaving about a year ago. (What a world of difference from electric).

Recently moved to Europe for work, and walking down the local flea market I notice all these razors for sale. Today I picked up what looks to be a "Thoso" razor marked Solingen-Wald for a few bucks. Razor seems to be in really good shape, minor marking on the steel and it's even sharp. Now all I need to do is figure out how to get it shave-ready and start scraping it against my face!

Anyways, already grateful for the information I've used from the site up until now and looking forward to contributing where I can.
