    Default Hello everyone, a frenchy one is happy and willing to share his hobby with you!

    Hello gentlemen,

    So here I am.

    I'm a french boy, 30 yo, wet shaving for nearly 2 years : with a DE first (a merkeur progress and a Gilette Slim), a then with straight razor for two months (with a J.Allen non XLL 5/8, full hollow, and a vintage Peroux-Cognet made in Thiers, i've had from my girlfriend's grandfather...)

    Really enjoying it!

    I registered because i'm triying to restaure (fix?) some old rusty blades, making scales, and all the job around this...

    So any help is welcome, as I am a beginner, & I think I'm going to spend some time in the restoration forum...

    And the wiki is really great!

    Well I think i've told everithyng, but will gladly answer to any question you could wan't to ask... (on french straight razors for exemple, or about anything else...)

    See you soon!

    Bbr.

    Ps. I hope my english isn't that bad, so you can understand me right.

    Hello, and welcome to SRP! Glad to see a fellow european. You have come to the right place to learn about straight razors, and as you sugested, the workshop forum is a great place to start. The wiki also has great articles on restorations, and we have a large and helpful group of people wiling to help, so don't hesitate to ask questions. Also check out the video subsection, there is gold in there
    Have fun!

    PS! Your english is fine, no problems
