SirJames:
Welcome to SRP! It sounds like the bug has already bitten you... I have found, after a few years, that the only cure is to give in! I look forward to seeing your posts around the forum.

Baldwin Wisconsin? Cool! I live in St. Paul and my family has a home in Knapp where I go frequently during the spring, summer & fall.
Your less than an hour away from me and welcome to come to my home in St. Paul anytime. I do have a few razors and hones if your interested.
Another SRP member, Geezer, lives close to you & Turbine712 lives in Hudson, WI.
I will put you on my email list to be notified of the next Minnesota Razor Meet. Wisconsinites & Iowans are always welcome!

I just did a search for SRP members in Wisconsin.
Found about 76 names! Send me a PM if you want the list.

Thanks Benjamin,
Yes, I have been bitten and deeply infected. It’s completely incurable.

Thanks for the invite Randy. Thats great that there is so many of us around the area with a love and appreciation for the art of stright razor shaving. I am usualy in St. Paul once a week. I fly out of MSP just about every Monday. I also used to work at Ft. Snelling, Robinsdale, Roseville, and White Bear. So, I am pretty familiar with the area.

I appreaciate you emailing when the next Minnesota Razor Meet is going to happen. I would love to attend. Some day I would love to take you up on your offer to see some of your razors, or we could meet for a cup of coffee and talk shop. Also, if you are in the Baldwin area drop me a line.

If you want to see the full collection, I hope you have a lot of vacation time. You'll be there awhile.

Gentlemen:

Our friend Chip is right about Mama Bear soaps, produced in Florence, way up north in Wisconsin near Marinette. The soap produces luxurious lather with good cushion and glide. Soap mistress Sue Clark is a delight.

By the way, I have a short article on Sue and Mama Bear soaps coming out February 24. I'll post the link.

Regards,

Obie
