Hello from Longmont, Colorado

Im a young vet recently out of the Army after 9 years of service. Been having lots of irritation from every razor I've encountered. I inherited my grandfathers fatboy safety razor about a 9 months ago (no more irritation!!), and immediately started giving away my old (new style) razors. Currently looking at purchasing a straight razor in a week or so. Wanted to join SRP to learn more and have a place to ask questions for a beginner in a new art. If anyone know of any good place for razor goods in colorado please feel free to let me know!!

First off, as a fellow vet I want to thank you for your heroic service to our country and welcome you to SRP!!!
When looking for a straight razor, you can save yourself time and trouble by buying your first sr from Straight Razor Designs. It will be a quality razor that is honed by professionals and comes with a free follow-up honing service. You will also find all the extras that will get you off to a great start.
Read as much as you can here on the forum and ask many questions.
I hope you find as much pleasure in your new endeavor as I have!
Regards
John
