    Default Greetings from Scotland

    Good afternoon/morning,

    I'm a recent convert to straight razor shaving, having bought a disposable w/ blades from eBay. I found that shaving with a straight razor was actually a lot more fun, albeit slightly bloodier at the start!

    I've just (last week) invested in a Dovo Solingen from Taylor of Old Bond Street along with a strop and finding that shaving with a 'proper' straight razor is even more satisfying - and I haven't cut myself (yet). Still finding it difficult to catch the areas around the Adam's Apple and the chin, but watching YouTube videos and reading articles to try and improve the technique.

    Anyway, glad to be here, Happy Hogmanay to all.

    Welcome! sounds like you are well on your way! Yeah the neck will be the learning area ha. It is so much more enjoyable to make shaving something worth while! Good luck as you learn and ask or search away with questions!
