Thread: Hi from the bay area!

Hi, my name is William

I got a TI oak wing G as an early Christmas present from my uncle whom i told that i wanted to go into straight razor shaving.

At first i was a bit intimidated, as it is one of the most expensive thing i own (i was thinking of getting the cheapest theirs issard or dovo razor i could find), then i told myself i will use it and even if it scratches or something like that, it will just be part of it's "history". rationalization, i know

before i got it, i was already browsing through SRP probably every day, learning what i can. this is a great community as i learned so much in so little time.

well thats enough about me, happy holidays!

Welcome! I'm in Petaluma. Which part of the Bay Area are you in?

thanks! im in San Jose

Welcome to SRP,

May I suggest that you include your location in your profile. Click on "Settings" above........

Be sure that your razor has been honed by a Pro.... the factory edges are seldom the best, Look in the SRP Classifieds under Services for SRP members who provide honing services. Your face will say
"Thank you!"

wellcome homie,San Jose also

Hello William,
San Francisco was my home for many years. Here, though, at Straight Razor Place, we're all at home. Welcome. As my friend Randy says, have that razor honed by a professional to give you a good start.
