    Welcome to the forum. I think getting familiar with straight razors is a great place to start. Making a razor shaped object is not that hard, making a blade that is highly functional is the trick. :-)
    I am still setting up my shop. Island time, it happens as it happens, no need to rush into things.

    I'm laughing at Island time. It's a thing. AND there's a lot of wisdom in that nugget.


    And welcome aboard Joel!

    Also there is crazy learning at meets. There is often one in greater Toronto area most years and there is another in Wisconsin, those are reasonably close at hand. There is also a makers meet in Texas every year. There is also shop visits with people you meet online.

    From one Canadian Joel to another, welcome to SRP!

    I currently live in Magog, but I'm trying to set up a shave meet in Montreal on June 8.

    Love the look of that knife, the way the heal extends past the bolster.... The whole package looks like a highly functional piece of art.
