Hobby or Sport?
Two words to encompass straight razor shaving, all of it. And in my brief time in this field I know I have scratched the surface, so to speak. But neither of these two words seem to apply. Hobby brings to mind, model trains, mustache cup collecting, quilting, etc., so in effect the word hobby doesn't communicate the dangerous aspect of shaving with an open blade the way real men have done for hundreds of years.
Sport makes it sound like we have shaving contests, maybe leagues, contracts, superstars (well, there are some of those, in fact I've got one as a friend).
So wondering if anyone else finds these two words deficient.
Me, I prefer ritual. And like some guy keeps saying....it is fun so maybe ritual is too Medieval, but hobby or sport?"Call me Ishmael"
