Thread: Another Newby

Hi all, Names Si and I've been using a DE for a couple of years and have wanted to go to straight since I started.
So I've taken the plunge with this little baby

so it's a lovely condition vintage plum straight.

Welcome! Did you pick it up shave ready and have you tried it out yet?

Hello there and welcome

Hi, it is supposed to be shave ready, I haven't got it yet, and it will be a Xmas present from my daughter, so won't get it until the 25th

Welcome to SRP and congrats on a sweet looking blade. Between no and Christmas I expect you'll be watching a lot of videos.

hello and welcome Si,

if you care to tell us where its from we would have a better idea if it is shave-ready or not, it may need sending out to a professional so you can actually use it come xmas day and your face can look like you tried to catch a turkey and had a brawl with it.

Hi all, thanks for your replays. I bought it from eBay, from a bloke who lives in Plymouth in the UK. He is called Daniel the Language teacher, and claims that it is shave ready, well for him anyway what ever that means. So please can you tell me who I can send it to, I live in Suffolk in the UK
many thanks
Si
