Hola from Texas
I'm Daniel from SA, TX (Go Spurs! - Next year haha)
I have long since traded in the multiblade razors for DEs and have been using them for a few years.
I have always wanted to learn to use a straight razor, and have been looking into those options. Lurking here I picked up the poor mans strip kit from Whipped Dog, and a fairly inexpensive Henkels/Soligen vintage straight from fleabay to learn to hone and strop, not necessarily to shave with, although that would be an ideal start.
Great forum you guys have here. I love all of the information I have found thus far.

Be careful of rust on the henkels, don't want to contaminate the strop.
Welcome to the forum

Good info. Thanks. This one seems cleaned up pretty well. No rust, some pitting. Decent edge to it.

Not so much. Longtime online handle, had a black car at the time, and I'm a Funeral Director/Embalmer.
