Hello to you all.

ALthough I have had a previous dalience with SRs. I have again become interested. Perhaps my upcoming mandatory retirement is a factor. I think the struggle to learn a new skill is appealing; or, maybe I just like to bleed! At this point I consider it all magic and my meager honing success will be chalked up to luck...or voodoo.

I have only shaved with a SR 5 times but I seem to be improving. My straights are still not as comfortable as my DE. I have had one razor honed by a pro and purchased a new Hart Steel meat cleaver. I have only sharpened one blade that can achieve the same results, purely accidental. I have already garnished some valuable info from this site that I hope to put into practice.

This seems like a rather personable enviroment.
