    Default First Straight Razor and hopefully more to come!

    Just got this and I am sure it won't be my last. Switching from a safety razor to a Str8 will be different but I am excited.

    Welcome to SRP. That's a beautiful razor. Do you know if it's shave ready?

    Got it from Fendrihan and it says pre-sharpened by Thiers Issard but not sure that means shave ready.
    I have a place I town that does straight shaves and also gives a lesson. Going to pay for a lesson and make sure I get off to a good start.

    She may not be "shave ready" but hopefully where you go to for your lesson can help with that.

    That being said, that's a honey of a razor! Nice choice!

    Good luck! You'll love shaving with a straight razor. I'm new at it myself. I'm hooked!
