Hi,
Im Brad from Ohio. I found my grandpas straight razor after he passed and I have always been interested in straight shaving but never knew what kind of razor to buy, so now I have one. I sent it to GemStarCustoms to get shave ready, so now I just need to buy some things and hopefully use it like it should be used!

Welcome. I am just a bit north of you.
That razor should clean up very nicely.
Hmmmm...just a bit north of Cincinnati? For those interested, we just might be narrowing down Slartibartfast's location. :)Quote:

If that is going to be your "starter" razor, pay close attention to where the square point is at all times when shaving, otherwise those things tend to have a nasty bite. Good luck and keep us posted of your progress.
Welcome Brad, nice razor it should clean up nice and serve you well.

Louis.
Welcome aboard!
