Hey, new guy from Scotland
Hi, I'm michael, where to start, never joined a forum before, posted here by a friendly sole on fb. I just turned 48 so late to the game. Born in Toronto, live in Stirling, Scotland, 25 years police in Glasgow, 7 kids.
Shaving was always a chore, often electric in the car late for something. Inherited a Gillette British slim twist from my grandfather when he died. Never learnt how to use it till 5 years ago, loved it, bought a few more vintage safety razors and then started seeing straight razors that I thought were only the realm of old barbers.
Don't really want new but don't have the knowledge to know if a blades wrecked or well priced. Hence I'm here. I carve and whittle on the side so can keep blades sharp but different ball game. That's about it I think? thanks
