    Welcome aboard owl1260. What make of straight razors did you get if you don't mind me asking? Reason I ask is there are good ones & bad ones. Hopefully they aren't on this list:

    Brands of Straight Razors to Avoid - Straight Razor Place Library

    She meant well so I'm hoping they are good ones. Keep us posted. We're here to help you.
    Good luck my friend.

    Right on. I'm glad you have those & yes, many people have had that problem. I really don't understand why factories claimed to be shave ready when they weren't. It has happened more times than I can remember.
