Hi everybody,
I have been lurking around on these forums for a month or two now, and finally decided to sign up and start posting here and there.

I live in Edmonton, Alberta and am fairly young (23). At the moment i am a shaving with a Merkur Progress DE razor that i just got for Christmas from my lovely Fiancee. I mentioned it a few times, and she went and did a lot of research and got it for me And after looking up different things on the internet about it (brushes, shave creams, etc.) I came upon this website, where i realized that people still ACTUALLY shave with straight edge razors. After that i was hooked, i have always wanted a straight edge but didn't know that still really existed and were somewhat popular(?)

I am now in the progress of checking out the classifieds, looking for a decent straight edge for a newbie.
