    I'm new to this forum, but not new to wet shaving, I have been wet shaving for almost 5 years, I started out with a Merkur 23c with Feather blades, 2 years ago I switched to a Muhle R41 also with Feathers usually, it was arough start, but once I got hold of the razor I love it, also since a week I'm the proud owner of a custom made Koraat straight razor. I also like to try out new soaps, my favorites so far are Stirling Glacier Lemon Chill (I love Menthol), DR Harris Windsor and Haslinger Honey, I also like Stirling Eucalyptus Mint. I shave with cold water by the way. I'm also very interested in straight razor, I have some strops and a 20k stone(Suehiro Gokumyo 20k water stone) since a few days.

    I'm currently learning how to strop and hone on the 20k :). Cut my first strop and ordered a new one a few days ago. I have those strops from Herold and they are so small, I find those x-strokes quite hard to learn. To learn that I bought a Thiers Issard Le Dandy for 60euro from a shaving friend, we know each other from a dutch shaving forum. I'm also active on other forums and reddit by the way.
