The booth I found this one in had several others along with some old safety razors as well. I figure if I can make and old chisel or plane iron shave hair, I should be able to handle a straight razor, but I can already see the learning curve as the edge is quite delicate. Thank you all for the warm welcome and links for info! I look forward to learning as much as I can!
Hi MrLurkers,
I'm sure i won't be the only one to say it.
Sharpening a knife or a chisel etc is nothing like honing a straight razor.
