Jesse,welcome nice toy you made yourself, now you just need to get crackin on the leather aspect! Once again welcome from Clarksville, TN.

My hones cost me about $70. Then the soap an such can be had for about $12 for a starter kit of van Der haugen ..but over time it will be really cheap that's not so much the point though it's more the enjoyment of the shave, I use a merkur dual edge safety razor when time doesn't allow for a...

Yea there seems to be a fad coming around but I'm an old fart and got tired of a boring quad blade shave NOTHING beats a good ol wet shave either with a DE safety razor like a merkur or a straight razor shave! You should try a true safety razor like a DE they are so cost effective compared to...

No other replies ??? My question must have been to vague?

Thank you kind sir.

How thin should the spine on a wedge razor be? How thin is too thin to begin with? And finally on a frame back what should the spine thickness be in relation to the frame cross section/diameter ie 1/8"thick blade 3/8" thick frame with blade in center? I hope my questions aren't too vague?
