Hi,
I found this forum a while ago, but have just recently started posting. I found the site looking for info on razor honing. Boy did I find more info than that!
Here's a little info on myself. Grew up in Edinburgh, Scotland. I moved stateside to Chicago when I was 15 and am now 27. I've been using straight razors since I was 13-14. My first razor was a 6/8 W&B medium hollow ground that met an untimely death about a year ago via "well-intentioned" cleaning. Since then I have stocked up on many different types/brands of straights from England, Germany, USA etc. My current two favorites are my pre 1890 7/8 W&B, and Dovo Prima Klang. Two very different razors with so many great qualities.
Great community you have here, look forward to getting to know everyone.
