    Default Hi from Australia

    Hi guys,
    I’ve been an observer for many years, and was a member of Badger and Blade for many years.
    I started with safety razors, and they have been great and my new staple.
    I have now moved to straights, and this is the place for straights!!!!

    I just wanted to say that I have fallen for straights, the zen, the patience, the focus and the enjoyment that comes from sharpening and shaving with straights.
    In a world where everything is throw away, and everything is rushed, what a relief that there are still things in the world that can give back more than you give them.
    I enjoy the meditative process of shaving with a straight, and the few minutes it gives back to you in a busy day.
    Hi to all.
    Cheers Rob
