Howdy from West Texas

Until recently I was a long haired biker that hated shaving with a passion. 2 Years ago I was laid off my job in manufacturing and had to find something new to do. I have always been interested in law enforcement and so at 41, I put in a application with the local Sheriff's office. Well they actually hired me. The new job did require me to have short hair and be clean shaven. I am also a instructor in Japanese swordsmanship, so I decided to combine my love of fine razor sharp blades together with my need to shave and make it fun. So here I am learning to shave with a straight razor and loving it.

Thanks in advance to everyone's help

There's a few of us here who enjoy a variety of sharp blades.

Welcome James. I lived in west Texas and it was a fine place to be. I look forward to your public service, congratulations on an honarable public service.

Thank you , Thank you, it's good to be here. I'm learning new stuff every day. I gotta say I knew I was in the right place when I saw a razor called the Texas Lip Lopper with a hamon on it :)
