decide to jump into the last frontier of shaving the straight

[darkxshiki]

i just place an order for the the sight unseen from whipped dog.( wow the reply was fast and like that a mini manual was given)

i think i move and get cocky with my skills a little too fast. i barely started using a DE only a month ago.
can't PIF my DE as the main reason i got the DE was for a wedding oversea in a few months.

can't wait until i get it to try it out.

Welcome to the dark side!

Did you get the poor man strop kit, too?

yes i decide to get the poor man strop kit . since i don't own a strop to begin with and you need one for a straight anyways

Pick up an extra strop if it's not too late. My first strop was demolished in about one hour's time after I first got it.

yeah too late. maybe i will get a spare if i order a SR as a gift. i was thinking about getting the spare but decide against it. i could practice on news paper or be super careful when i strop

Newspapers are good. If you have a Tandy Leather near you, they have a cheap ($15) paddle strop available.
