    Cool Hello!

    Hello to all from the Treasure Coast of Florida. My name is Mike, I'm a student Barber, build airplanes for Piper, 29, married, 2 kids and a dog. I'm pretty new to straights, haven't used mine yet. My AWESOME brother got me an Improved Eagle Razor with a custom Elk antler brush. My bro told me to come here a become a member, so here I am. I'm still looking into the rest of my supplies and doing some reading on here. This is the beginning of my journey.

    Hi & welcome. I'm fairly new as well. I've found SRP a great place to visit. Tonnes of info & just a really cool atmosphere. Enjoy
    Ps. Your brother rocks. I'm just using a shavette. I love it but not sure how dedicated I would be to honing etc so I'm holding off on that for now.
