New member from Sterling, VA
Started out as a reader of the forum as I reminisced the days when my dad would lather up and shave with a DE razor. Decided it is time to move away from safety razors and slowly work into the straight razors. So will start out slowly with some things I can pick up as I experiment and determine where my likes and dislikes are. Surely a good razor and a good brush will be the first on my list as I have found some choices reading this forum.
So just looking forward to the enjoyment that a straight razor will bring as I learn to master it.

Welcome Myron! I am sure you will eventually discover that the straight razor shave is a very rewarding experience.
I lived a short while in Sterling, VA in the 90's and attended Potomac Falls High School.

Welcome aboard! It's a fun skill to learn. Just watch out for all the addictions that go along with it. We're not exactly the full if self restraint type here. :thumbup:

Welcome aboard!
From their stillness came their non-action...Doing-nothing was accompanied by the feeling of satisfaction, anxieties and troubles find no place

Wanted a Tony Miller strop.
They were out of stock so bought something else.
Well yesterday the TM Strop became available.
Now will have two (Vintage and a new TM).
Thanks again!Badgister likes this.

Another place I visit on my Harley. Originally Posted by AFDavis11

Never visited the old store front since it was converted to a pool hall (love to play as well).
Thanks for the offer and will keep an open mind.
