    Default Hi from Pennsylvania

    been lurking for a while. tried my hand at DE shaving off and on for the last two years, and finally decided to make the plunge into the world of straight razor shaving. i have 5 straight shaves under my belt (or chin) so far--already feel MUCH more comfortable with the blade in my hands.

    thanks in advance to everyone for their input into this forum. looking forward to learning the "old school" method of shaving. the journey has begun...

    Welcome. Study the info in the library. Concentrate on the shave and strop until you are fully comfortable. Then start honeing with a cheap razor.

    Hi sandman98 & welcome to SRP. It sounds like you got a little bit of a head start so just read up on all you can & click on anything you can. You will find a lot of good information here, especially in the Library as you may have already noticed.
    Good luck my friend.
