    Default Hello from Ontario, Canada

    Hello!

    I started shaving about 3 years ago with a shavette, and loved it immediately. Bought an old Boker King Cutter and 3000/8000 stone soon after and realized I love honing and enjoy some light restoration work as well. I've been a lurker on this site for about 2 years enjoying the wealth of knowledge available here but I'm happy to finally be joining and posting something

    Welcome, there is lots of knowledge here for the lurkers (I know I used to be one) but when you join you can ask questions and get much more specific knowledge.

    If you already shave with a shavette you should be fine with a straight providing that you have a good edge on it.

    Enjoy.

    I'm down in the St. Catharines area. Unfortunately I will be out of province on that date, but thanks for the info, I'll definitely keep my eye out for similar events!
