I am a knife nut....well blade nut would be a better word, so i was always fascinated with it, though never really thought about it.
I was helping my ex-girlfriend clean out the junk room in their house, and found a torrery full double concave in a box of antiques, it just went downhill form their, first the found razor, then bought more, then bought DE etc... using aDE now, and my fascination with a straight is strong as ever, will be shaving with them within 3 months taking me a while to get strop (keep spending the money on more razors)

Oh, and i like the shock on peoples face when you tell them
