    Default Hi from Kingston upon Hull

    Hi everyone let me start by saying that You guys have a great resource built up here, by far and a way the best site I have seen.

    Anyway my name is Chris and as you can guess by the topic name I am from Hull in the UK.
    I will share two things with you:-
    1, at the ripe age of 26 I am a complete new comer to the straight razor game ( I don't even have a razor yet)
    2, i am not a very hair person couldn't grows beard If my life was at stake but I do love the art of shave.

    Thanks a lot guys and I look forward to picking your brains

    Welcome to SRP, Chris!

    Dont' worry. I can grow a "circle beard", but can't grow a full beard to save my life either. It hasn't stopped me from having the time of my life using a straight razor.

    Welcome form a fellow Brit.

    As for your initial set up Neil Miller at The Strop Shop is the fellow to speak to about strops and shave ready vintage razors. While Steve Dempster atThe Invisible Edge sells modern Dovos and Theirs Issard razors as well as some vintage ones. Its also worth checking out the classifieds here.

    All the best and enjoy yourself.
