I became interested in SR's for the simple fact that they should rarely if ever need to be replaced. And at 24 I have already spent quite a pretty penny on Mach 4's or whatever they are called now.

So I jumped in and bought this razor:
Micarta Joseph Allen & Sons Straight Razor SHAVE READY - eBay (item 200525906653 end time Oct-07-10 17:58:07 PDT)

From what the guys on SRP chat tell me, it's not the best choice, but it's all I got.

I bought a cheap 6 dollar Shaving Set from CVS which includes a brush, a bowl, and some soap.

I am looking for a good strop so that I can maintain the SR in between shaves.


I appreciate all the time and energy that you great people put into this forum and am looking forward to becoming a SR master just like all of you!

Thanks again
