Hey I'm Foran, I'm from NY but live in okinawa at the moment for the marine corps, I am 100% new to straight razor shaving I have yet to even by my first razor. I am 21 years old, and have always been interested in straight razor shaving. Given that I will soon be moving into a house with my wife and my shave is under constant scrutiny in the corps I figured now is the time to get into it even with my complete lack of knowledge. Getting supplies is difficult out here in okinawa as I do not yet know of any places to buy them from. If anybody has any information on areas in Okinawa to purchase supplies for this that would be great. I have done a fair bit of research on beginners dos and do nots but I am still not sure about much of anything really and am looking for some more guidance especially when it comes to the quality of straight razors as not being able to physically inspect them makes it hard for me to tell as I don't know the brands and terminology quite yet. Any information or suggestions would be great as far as what I can purchase online that will be of good quality but not at a fair price. I'm trying to get a full set with razor strop brush bowl honing stone shaving soap and even aftershave. I want to go for the full effect.
