Howdy Folks

Once upon a time, I bought a straight razor kit and tried my hand at shaving and blade maintenance. I was getting the hang of shaving, but maintaining sharpness eluded me. I threw in the towel and listed my razor and whetstone on eBay along with a little story about why I was selling the equipment. The items were purchased by none other than SRP resident, PaulFLUS. He encouraged me to try again and seek help here at SRP. So, here I am. I'm gonna check out the library, see what I can learn, and try to figure out some good equipment to acquire.

Hey, while I'm here, does anyone know which came first: Straight Razor Place or Sharp Razor Palace? Was one name inspired by the other?
