Hey Y’all , been wet shaving all my life but only 10 with a Straight razor. I fell in love with the patience, care and routine of shaving with a straight. I’m still learning though, so I am looking forward to pick up everything I can.
thank you for this great place!

Hi fellow shavers,
Taking my first steps in the SR world,
Have a couple of vintage razors on the way, will restore them, learn to hone them, strop and start skingrafting
Have a set of stones on the way and a Hairloom Artisan premium strop on the way too.
I am honored to join and learning so much from the accumulated knowledge and experience gathered in this forum.
Wishing a good day to all from Guayaquil, Ecuador

Hi, new guy here. Justin from Texas. Been using DE razors and SE shavettes for 5 months. Then, I got in touch with Glen in a facebook SRP group. Just had my first straight razor shave yesterday, and it's honestly the big bad thing I've been chasing this whole time. Excellence in the form of a blade.
Welcome and have fun on your continuing journey.

Whew, it's been a while.
I think it's been over 13 years since I was an active member here, and I guess my membership lapsed. I had been in the original Yahoo group back in 2002, then was one of the early members back in the Straight Razor Place. I was pretty active up until 2010-ish. I'm not sure how many people remember me from back then. The main reason I fell off the earth for so long was because there was a lot of upheaval in my life for that timen. Things have been settled for the past 7 years or so, and I'm kinda starting to breathe again. The reason I didn't come back sooner was because I wanted to avoid online forums during the Trump and COVID years, people were having a hard time disagreeing respectfully and keeping conversation civil during that time.
I'm sure a lot has happened in the group since I was last here. It seems there was a split of some kind? I was getting notifications for a while from the "Sharp Razor Place" forum. Not sure I want all the details, but I am sort of curious about what happened over that time.
To all the old members who might have a vague recollection of me, I'm glad to be back, and for all the people who have no idea who the hell I am, nice to meet you

Welcome back. glad your here. There are some of the old members here as well as new members. As far as politics I really can't say I've seen any talk of it. As far as honing shaving and razors there's a lot of that. All respectful conversation but we all have our favorites. I can't say I remember you but then again I'm old and can't remember what I had for breakfast. What makes it worse is I cooked. Please enjoy yourself. There's a lot of good folks here.
. Please enjoy yourself. There's a lot of good folks here.
Welcome back. Hope you enjoy yourself. As far as the politics go of what happened. Well there was a difference of opinions and some other stuff and lets just say, It's better now... Have fun and please join in whenever you can....

That has to be the most diplomatic and oblique statement I have ever read, LOL. I'm glad the drama is in the past.

Hello everybody !! My name is Brent. I'm from hookstown pa. Started shaving with straight razors a few months ago and have fallen in love with japanese and American razors.
Outside of wet shaving , I'm into cigars , guns , woodworking, and working out. Any who it will be nice to get to know all of you. I look forward to it
