Hello,
I currently am a daily head, face wet shaver. I own and use a multitude of vintage, modern DE and occasionally SE razors.
I am very happy with the results I've been getting.
I would now like to explore straight razor shaving. Maybe for weekend shaves where I have time to enjoy it.
I was hoping somebody could recommend some books specifically on sharpening them. Although any recommendations on any books pertaining to straight razor shaving would be greatly appreciated also.
My goal is to buy a couple cheap straights to practice and master the sharpening technique. Then get a better straight for face time.
I know there are a bunch of videos out on YouTube etc but I find reading about something I enjoy much more satisfying.
Cheers
John
