I joined this forum several months ago, but for whatever reason, I have never posted. I think it is time to change that. I been working on learning straights for a little while now. I actually purchased a Ralf Aust razor and strop from SRD. Unfortunately, with my work responsibilities and little children, I really only have time on weekends to dedicate to straights. During the week, I use a DE. So, it is going a bit slow for me, although I make a WTG pass with my straight and finish up with a DE. I have to really enjoyed learning the new skill, so I will probably start spending more time here than I have. I am on a bit of a hiatus from the straight, as I am working a shutdown at work for the next 6 - 7 weeks, but I should have some time to get some tips from here.
