Yo, I joined
Ok, so i've been lurking on this site for some time now, I have gotten so much info l figured it was time to join. Thanks to every one that's posted with the same questions and answers I have been looking for.
I started using a straight (brand X) about 5 months ago to see if I would like it, as it turns out I fell in love with the shave, and I NEVER liked shaving, go figure. About 2 months ago I bought a Boker celebrated extra hallow ground with bacote wood scales, this razor put brand X to serious shame. Brand X is now a hone practice tool so not an actual waste of money, to be honest Im glad I bought the brand X.
Thanks and glad to be here.

Welcome to an older but better way of shaving from SE Washington State USA.
Glad to see that you've been doing some research instead of diving head first into this age old art.
If I can be of any help, please let me know.

Thanked: 4826Welcome. I think if brand x made you fall in love with straight shaving then you did in fact get more than your money's worth.
It's not what you know, it's who you take fishing!
