    Default Hello

    Hi all, I'm new to your forum. A little about me: I live in Central Missouri and I purchased my first straight razor today. I look forward to talking with you other members.

    I purchased this W.R. Case & Sons razor. These are the sellers photos and I will post some when it arrives. I paid $62 I'm hoping that was inline with what I should have.

    Welcome to SRP Bear
    You will need to learn to strop most importantly but also you may want to send that razor out to Lynn or gssixgun for honing if it isn't shave ready yet. You will also want to get a brush, shaving mug & shaving soap. Once you have one good shave ready razor, you will want to buy a second one for when you send one out to be honed so that you may still shave. You can learn to strop in the Library here as well as learn many other things. There is a wealth of information on here. Please feel free to ask any questions as there are many knowledgable people here. Great to have you, good luck & have fun!
