howdy (again) from NE Oklahoma
I’m not a new guy, just a backslider. Gssoxgun, Hoglahoo, and straightrazor will all recognize the name.
It’s been awhile since I’ve been active here. Facebook took my interest then my Father passed away five years ago. Now, instead of being clean shaven with short hair, I appear as if I’m a roadie for Lynyrd Skynyrd. Five years of hair growth will do that to you.
If I could figure out how to post a profile pic on here I would lol. Suffice it to say I’d look like I was in the wrong forum.
For now I’m on the fence as to whether to keep the beard and sell the razors or to shave the beard and keep the razors or maybe a little of each.
My other hobbies are ham radio, 35mm photography and collecting vintage things.
For those who are unfamiliar with me, I’m visually challenged having sight in one eye. If I can learn to shave with a straight, anyone can!
Edit: figured out (obviously) how to attach a photo.

Good to see you back. We all go through these things. We have some radio guys here who appear quite good.
We all mostly love vintage things and pictures!
Give the razors a go. Lots of info here, as you well-know.

I also encourage you to enjoy those straights a bit. Either way, welcome back to the forum!

Hey, Tony. Nice crop of hair! Five years of cultivation could be gone in short order.
Tough choice. Good luck!

Welcome back Tony. Its a hard choice to cut the hair when we start getting older. Mine went gray so i figure after 20 years, it was time to get it cut.
BTW, hope to work ya on the airways someday when conditions come back.
K1INGIt's just Sharpening, right?
