Thread: Hello from Mississippi

Guys,
I am new to this but have always been interested. Lately I find myself reading and watching videos on everything from brushes, soaps, honing, shaving, stropping, etc. I am eager to get started and will be keeping an eye on those classifieds.

Looks like this site has information on everything that I need to know.



Thanks,

Trey

Welcome to the site. You will find that a straight razor will turn a cursed morning chore into something you really look forward to and a straight razor is like potato chips...........you can't have just one.

Hi and welcome. You are right this site does have everything you need to know and a whole lot more. Take it slow to start and soon you will see the results your after. Good luck getting started and any questions feel free to ask

I have been reading and am excited. I am a collector by heart so I am sure I will have fun. I have been looking for a razor, hone, and strop. I am a tinkerer so a fixer upper is what I need as I will have as much fun refurbishing as I will shaving. There is a lot to take in when learning about the type razor one needs, the brand of razor, the maintenance and all that goes with it.

I have my grandfathers old brush, cup, and safety razor so I will enjoy getting them out and utilizing what I can.

Thanks to all.
