That was very nice of you Lynn. I wish I lived a lot closer myself!

Hi and welcome. Any questions feel free to ask.
Sounds like good advice, I'll definitely look into this. As of now I have purchased a Van Der Hagen mug and soap set for cheap. I can't use the brush due to being pork and pork product free. I found a Marvy synthetic brush until I can get a decent badger brush. I'm still in the market for a strop and once my straight gets here I' think I'll get it out to Lynn either through the mail or set up a personal meeting as we are only a few hours away.
Got a second straight on the way. Now to get them out to be cleaned up and sharpened. Attachment 186584
welcome from another new boy
Welcome to SRP. As you can see, there are a lot of people here willing to help new shavers.

If you can, set up a meeting with Lynn. There isn't anything like one on one training, for free on top of that! I wish i lived closer to him but I have to wait until he comes to the Houston area again for a meet. The second razor you got is perfect. It looks like it doesn't have any excessive hone wear or any chips in the blade. You are doing right to get a second one. We can't stress that enough to new members & as for the brush, I prefer badger myself. You are going to be ok, Take advantage of Lynn's offer, you can't go wrong!
