Thanks guys! :)

jhenry,

I was lucky enough to be introduced to straight razor shaving when I was in college years ago so I've been able to pick up some beauties over the years. Joining this forum, however, has rekindled my passion for the hobby and I find myself perusing antique stores and online auctions for those hidden gems once again. Couldn't be more fun!
