    Default Art of Manliness - Straight Razor Shaving Article

    Looks like there's both good and bad information in this article. SRP and SRD is mentioned.

    What's the bad info in that article? I only skimmed through it quickly but it looked good to me. The honing section is perhaps a bit oversimplified, but it is a good starter IMHO.

    Nice article. Yes, a bit simplified, but you can't expect perfection in 1500 to 2000 words. The vids on tying a tie were great!

    Well there was this bit of misinformation:
    The only cost you’ll have from here on out is an occasional tube of shaving cream.

    And they certainly got the evaluation of sources on straight shaving right:
    Straight Razor Place. This site has it all. An active, supportive community, an awesome Wiki, product reviews, and an epic straight razor shaving how to video. Bookmark this site.
