I've loved the idea of a straight razor ever since I started shaving. They were always so expensive that I just continued to pay out the nose for cartridges. For Christmas my wonderful wife brought me a brand new straight razor and a honing kit.
Looking forward to learning how to use it!
My razor: Dovo Solingen
Learn to shave and forget the honeing for now. Welcome.
Welcome!
Read through the library and ask questions.
Where in NY are you located?
What boushie said and tell us more about your razor, if you,ve been lurking you know it needs to be from a reputable place that really does know how to hone o e, your adventure will be better with a shave ready edge, Tc
Hi JustinScott & welcome aboard. Take bouschie's advice & it is advice from many of us. Mainly learn to shave & use a strop. Practice stropping with a butterknife so you don't cut a good strop or dull a nice edge. You can learn to hone later after you have acquired the experience of the afore mentioned. Go to Library here & check out the Beginners Guide & go from there plus go to Youtube & watch Lynn Abrams video's. Any questions, just ask.
Good luck!
Hi and welcome. +1 to all said above. Good luck getting started and any questions feel free to ask
