    thats a good post and it brings up a very important point for those who sell honed shave ready razors to first time users , ya just know there gonna blame the razor every time if things dont go perfectly ..hehe ! only natural I spose but it does make it frustrating when it happens no doubt . I would think if Lynn cant get it right who can .... way to go on the appology my hat off to you sir .

    It's normal reaction. Most guys who pick up a straight razor for the first time, can't use it correctly, angle is usually to blame..As the other's said, it takes a man to apologize...
    good 4 you....
    We have assumed control !

    Danricgro,

    By doing what you have done in your post, i think it's safe to say that a gesture like THAT (making apologies) is a deed of a true gentleman!!
    My respect to you, Sir!!

    Regards,

    RazorBack

    Thank you!!

    I think expectations sometimes outweigh the fact that we all have to start from the beginning when are learning something new.

    The main thing is to learn straight razor shaving correctly and enjoy it forever.

    You guys may not know this, but years ago and way before I had a shop, I begged the big shops to sell honed razors to people. The thought was that it is hard enough to learn to shave without having to learn to hone or wait to have your razor honed. This forum will always be dedicated to your success. It truly is the spirit of this house. Your post makes it all worthwhile.

    This was very kind of you and I do hope that some of the new people coming into our world will learn from you.

    All the best,

    Lynn
