Good Day fellas, My name is Herb and I just stumbled across this site the other day while doing some research on razors. I'm from North Central Washington (state) and have always had an interest, or spark if you will for straight razors and the finer things from earlier times (I'm only 24, but an old soul). I've recently decided that it is time to acquire one of these fine tools of grooming, and look forward to enjoying all the information and camaraderie that this site has to offer. Happy New Year everyone! :beer1:
