    Default Hello from giotti.

    Hello everyone,
    I'm Giacomo (or giotti, my nick, if you prefer) and recently a discovered the wonderful SR word and come across SRP!

    First of all: thanks for this amazing site!

    A couple of weeks ago, I bought a couple of razors on ebay and now I'm trying to restore them.

    I'll let you know about them in the dedicated threads.

    Cheers

    We are glad to have you!

    I'm sure you can handle the clean-up on the razors, but a word of advice: Leave the honing to a veteran honer until you get the hang of shaving with a straight. I'm sure you may have read this already, but wanted to help you out just in case. Please don't hesitate to PM me if you have any questions.

    Hi shooter74743,
    thanks a lot for your hint.

    Of course I read about shave readiness lurking around and I will wait until I'm sure that my razors are shave ready!

    Cheers.

    Well, just to let you know that I did it :-)
    My first time, both checks with my honed and stropped GEORGE WOSTENHOLM & SON..
    Great satisfaction!

    Cheers.

    I missed my welcome! Glad you enjoyed the razor. I have a George Wostenholm coming back from being restored so I can't wait to see how it shaves!
