You guys might not know it but Nelson has been around since the Yahoo days!! Happy Birthday and many more!!!

Rifle Deer Season is upon us here this weekend. Bow has been going for a couple weeks already. Weather is getting colder which is good and I'm ready to go.

Wishing all of you a safe and successful...

Rising Sun Lodge #115.

For me, Stainless razors have a little more grainy feeling on the Naniwa's than the Carbon razors but I don't do anything different when honing them other than a couple extra strokes on the higher...

SRP has been the target of every troll, hate group/forum and self serving wannabe and poser since the original community was founded. So please join the hate crew elsewhere.

I was the one who...

The biggest cause for staining is getting water in the scales. Once the staining starts, it is hard to keep it away. The RIG is good for long term storage as is the gun wrap paper. NEVER get water in...

Love an Easter Troll!! Hi Bully!!! Or, is it Pony this time??? Which of them are you selling??

Awesome Hog Chops on my newly restored Lodge #12.
...

Pretty much just seared on the stove and then finished in the oven at 395 degrees. Probably could have used a minute less in the oven. I have done a bunch of Flanks like this and they turn out really...

Lodge #9. Awesome Flank Steak.

Guess you would have to give it a try.

What is your source of information??

For me, the scuttle is all about keeping the suds warm for the pass 2 shave and lather for touch ups after that or a pass 3 if you do them. Some people like to build lather in their bowls so like a...

I think the Latigo's are the worst at this. The color and wax layer will actually leech as the strop breaks in. The little particles are harmless and you can brush them off the strop as they develop....

Very nice.

The 41 blade is a nice shaver too.

I learned how to hone off the old Norton 4/8K. It was the only stone I used for the first couple years.

Have fun.

I use the Naniwa Traditional 1K a lot. It feels like an old water stone but behaves like the rest of my Naniwas. Not as soft as the Selective and not quite as hard feeling as the Professional...

You might want to show where you live as there could be one of the guys close to you who will be able to mentor you in person which really cuts down the learning curve.

Started when I was 21. 65 years old now.

Feel free to stop by and I'll show you how to hone it while I hone it for you on me. I'm in Chesterfield.

Have fun.

Happy Birthday Nelson!!

Maybe you can Gas it...........

If you live anywhere near Medina, OH stop by the SRD store where you can see and feel the razors and strops and maybe that will help you make your decisions regardless of where you purchase them from.

Being the person who introduced the Poly Webbing strops into the wet shaving community, I can tell you that I tested it against every second strop material I could find for a year before putting it...

A really good tip for learning to shave the chin is to grab a tennis ball or a baseball and practice shaving the roundness of the ball but obviously not touching it. The motion is similar to shaving...

When I lived in Ohio and was on a well, I didn't like the greasy feeling of the water in the house for honing. Didn't drink it either. I used Distilled water to hone as that was my personal...
