Straight Razors = Fun:

Well I'm currently in the process of learning the art of a straight razor shave and I'm having a blast. I got an epic straight razor shave the other day and I'm now hooked on the experience. I'm currently working on my straight razor shaving situation in terms of hardware and equipment which a friend is helping me out with. So here pretty soon, I'll be sending out my vintage yet again to be re honed which was not made shave ready. In fact I was kindly disappointed in it to be honest and it took him forever to get it honed and back to me. So my new source for honing is going to hook me up for a small fee and I'm buying a new strop of him as well. In the future, I plan on buying more razors from him and having him re hone my straights when they need it. I also need to pick up a jeweler's loop which will be a huge help in determining when a re honing is needed. So I'm currently working on my straight razor shaving gear as we speak.
