Greetings from Fridley, MN. I'm new to straight edge shaving. I've been traditional wet shaving with double edge and single edge razors for little over two years now. I've always been interested in trying a straight, though. I finally decided to take the plunge after lurking around here for a couple of weeks. I have a razor and Poor Man's Strop Kit on the way from Whipped Dog. It should be here any day. I'm nervously anticipating its arrival.
