Hi Folks,
I've been shaving mostly with the same Gillette double edged safety razor since I started shaving thirty odd years ago, but recently I got a Merkur 34C, which led me to notice this whole retro shaving thing that seems to be happening. I didn't even know I was ahead of the times!
This holiday I was back home and sorting through some of my late father's stuff and came across three straight razors which I believe were my grandfather's. So, now I want to learn the fine art of real shaving, instead of face-scraping. To learn, I've bought a nice vintage Boker, shave-ready, from our colleague Cuda. Eventually I will see about refurbing Grandpa's blades and using them once again.
Great site, and I look forward to learning a lot from y'all.
