Welcome to SRP! Don't worry about the language. You probably speak and write it better than most of us :)
Welcome to SRP!! +1 to what MattCB said... With the continuing popularity of Texting and similar electronic communication, it is rare enough to see anyone using complete sentences anymore. ;)
Happy Shaving!!

Hi & welcome to SRP. There's a wealth of information on here to learn so absorb it like a sponge. You will like it here, everyone is more than happy to help
with any questions you may have. If you buy a good used straight razor, make sure you shop around & know what to look for. You don't want anything with a worn spine & blade from honing. You also don''t want a blade with a frown in it or rust. A rusty edge will just chip mre of the blade off until you have nothing to work with. If you plan on buying a new razor, go to Straight Razor Designs & buy you one there. The Ralph Aust is a great beginners razor plus Lynn, the owner & founder of this forum is also part owner of SRD & he will make sure your razor is shave ready by honing it before it leaves there plus you will get a certificate for a free honing later for when it needs one again. It shouldn't need one for a few months once you get it. Don't forget to get you a shaving brush, mug & soap. You will also want to buy you a second straight razor for when you send one out to be honed, you will still have one to shave with. Go to the Library here & learn how to hone first. That is the first most important thing you will need to now because when you do get a straight, you will need to strop it before & after you shave unless you buy a new one from SRD. You won't need to strop it before you use it but after that you should strop it before & after you use it. Look around in the Library & learn things in there. They will be to your benefit! You may even eventually want to learn to hone your straight yourself but for now should you buy a used one, send it out to be honed by a professional. Please feel free to ask questions. There are a lot of knowledgable people on here.
Good luck & have fun!
