Hey Everybody
Hello, my name is Josh. I joined this site to learn more about different wetshaving techniques and miscellaneous stuff such as honing. I own three straights (my favorite being a Frederick Reynolds square point) and one black handled Gillette super speed. A little bit about me, I'm a Marine from the great state of Texas and was raised in a very traditional home. As I grew older I started to realize that I was born in the wrong timeframe! Just about everything that catches my interest is considered "vintage, antique or old school." And now that I'm older and a lot more financially stable I can dive into all these traditional pastimes. Well, that's about it for now. Hope you all have a good day.

Welcome aboard Josh. You have come to the right place for people who appreciate doing things the old way. Enjoy the journey!
The older I get the more I realize how little I actually know.
