Welcome to SRP!
It sounds like you are off to an excellent start.
Make sure you check out the Beginner's Section in the Library to learn how to hold the blade.

Welcome to SRP Owen. You're off to a great start & don't stop there. Do like criswilson10 said & go to the Beginner's Section in the Library & go from there. You'll be ok! You might want to get you a spare to start off with for when you send one out to be honed, you won't be left w/o. It'll take awhile but you'll get used to it. Just follow a few easy rules & everything will fall into place. Good to have you on here!
