I'm an up-and-coming young attorney (hopefully) in the upper mid-west. I enjoy collecting WW2 memorbilia and am a history buff. A clean-shave is a must and I insist on a smooth face! After using a Mach3 for years or so I've gotten into straight razors in the last year. Additionally, I've been honing my razors. Most of my instruction has been from you-tube, most of whom are members of SRP. I'm glad to have a place to buy quality razors at a fair price and have now began a collection in addition to my shaving rotation. Admittedly, I am an avid ebayer but have found that's not the place to purchase high-end razors... Thanks to all of you who give advice and put up with the frustration of us newbees...
