    Welcome aboard! Anything you want to know about wet shaving (and probably some stuff you don't want to know) can all be found here.
    Last night, I shot an elephant in my pajamas..........

    Looks like you're stocked up on your way

    As you probably know, be sure to get at least a couple of those bad boys pro-honed and pick up a nice strop if you haven't already.

    Have fun.

    Welcome! There's something satisfying about putting an old tool back in service...

    Welcome to SRP, nino! I love the way your gear is arrayed in the pics -- it looks like a medieval torturer's display!

    I actually went and grabbed some soap to try out today. We'll see how that works out. I've already learned so much just lurking

    I'm waiting for all of my straights to get here so I can determine which ones I will send to get honed first. I plan on getting a 4000/8000 stone and some more micromesh (I used it to polish up my nibs on my fountain pens...yes, just one more of my collections)

    I agree completely!! I did that with my bike, cameras, pens, and now razors I have an appreciation for older things that I can restore.

    jejeje...yeah, it does have that "Do I want to cut you open with a dull or sharp blade?" vibe to it.
