Hi to all, my name is Phil and I live in the UK. Never used a straight razor but got interested in them as my son has very successfully started using one and has asked me to restore and re scale a very old razor he recently purchased. ( I have in the past made and restored knives - hence his request ! )
I am looking forward to browsing the forum and learning some new ideas and techniques from some of the experts on here.
Have recently purchased an old Wade & Butcher in pretty good condition and hoping to work on this to become my first user ! ( with a little help from you guys, I will learn to shave properly ! )
