Thread: Hello and 1st razor purchase porn

Hello to all! My name is actually Dan, but my wife thinks I look like Sid the Sloth from the "Ice Age" movies, hence my user name.
Anyway, I have never used a straight razor, but look forward to giving them a go.
Today, I purchased this razor from a local antique shop for $15. It is a Wade&Butcher "The Celebrated" measure 13/16" from back to edge, has what looks to be buffalo horn scales and little brass pivot/pins, and came with box.
