    Default Hello from Naperville, Illinois

    Good morning everyone. I have been wet shaving with DE and SE razors for around 10 years, but I have never tried a straight razor. Recently, I received my wife's grandfather's straight razor, and getting the razor was just the push I needed to give it a try. The razor I received is a J.A. Henckels TwinWorks #34. I could not find much information on the razor. I look forward to interacting with the members of this group as I learn.

    Welcome to the SRP forum,Rascal ! Posting an image of your razor would be helpful. Here you will find some info concerning Henckels. J. A. Henckels - Straight Razor Place Library

    Welcome to the forum, it looks like the pin is missing in the wedge.

    Is the razor worth getting in shave ready condition?
