    Greetings! New straight shaver from Kentucky. I've been wet shaving with DE razors for a few months now and have just started to put together my first straight shaving kit. I have a shave ready W.R. Case Liberty razor and a decent beginner strop. I though I'd check out the site here, join up and learn a little so that perhaps later, I'll be able to contribute just as well.

    Thank You Dave!

    I'm still putting together my gear. I have a shave ready razor and a leather and wool felt strop. What else should I look at acquiring next for my straght shaving needs?

    Welcome to SRP. I started Straight shaving about two months ago after a very brief foray into DE shaving. You'll find the people posting here are tremendously helpful and truly genuine.

    Take your time reading the information and don't be afraid to ask questions. That said, keep us posted on your progress and good luck!

    Welcome to the site, Do some reading in the beginners section of the WIKI and ask anything you can't seem to find there, or about what you do.
