Hi everyone,
Just thought I would sign in and say hi! I am a regular on 'The Shaving Room' and occasional contributor to 'The Shaving Nook', but only just stumbled upon this site.
I do not own a straight yet as various circumstances have delayed the purchase of one, but I intend to get one very soon, and already have a strop waiting! The silver lining of course is that it gives me more time to learn about it all!
Looking forward to chatting with everyone, and learning from you all.
Matt
Welcome to SRP Matt.
Everything you need to know is in the library. There are some very knowledgeable and helpful gentleman here, I'm sure that you will love it.

Welcome to the forum Matt. What razor do you have in mind? Where are you looking to get it from? Which strop do you have? 2" or 3"? Type of leather? Read everything you can on here and practice your stropping. If you need to do the x-pattern, I've put a demo on youtube. May help you. Good luck.

Hi again!
I'm thinking of getting a Revisor, from the Revisor shop! Got given a Dovo strop by a very kind person!
Looking forward to getting started!

Hello Matt
Welcome to srp. I'm guessing you are all set up with brush and cream etc? Remember to build in a wee bit extra money to your razor budget to get it sent to one of the pro honers here in the UK so that you know what a shave ready razor feels like.
Welcome Matt,
Nice to see another UK member. :D
Welcome to SRP Matt.

Hi and welcome. Any questions feel free to ask there are plenty of helpful folk here.
Hello Matt, welcome to SRP. I've been at this for a couple of years now, and am still learning from this fine group of gentlemen. Enjoy your stay.
Hi matt & welcome aboard. I see you have already gotten some good advice. The Library is your friend so get acquainted. Wayne showed a good video on stropping. You can also practice stropping using a butter or table knife to keep from cutting your strop.
Any questions, just ask.
Good luck my friend
Howdy Matt, welcome to SRP !!!
