My name is Jim and I live in the Cleveland, Ohio area. I have been straight razor shaving for about a month and half now. Every new shave is a better experience from the last. While I don't think I have it down completley, I haven't had to use a styptic pencil since my first shave. Better lucky than good!!!!!

I currently use a Dovo razor I got with my first "Kit" though I am haivng my grandfather's old Robeson restored by Glen on this forum. Can't wait to see it back in a like new condition and ready for it's first shave in probably 50 years or more.
