Me in Charlie Lewis' workshop a couple of weeks ago.
40 years old, Hair's been grey since forever. In a forge I always wear my workshop hat to protect what hair I have left. It's a habit I started because I forge with charcoal, and there is a significant amount of dust and fireflies involved.

I have a wife and 2 daughters. I am a sys admin by day, and a bladesmith whenever I don't need to do actual work or family stuff. I am happiest in a workshop doing metal work, or drinking high end Scotch with friends.

Hello!
My name is Pete and I'm a shaveoholic

I enjoy all things related to straight razor shaving, living in the country, my Harley and good bourbon.

I'm 55 years old and got into wet shaving a little over two years ago. Got into straights last year and never looked back. I've acquired a bunch of straights that need some restoration and am looking forward to learning how to do it myself.
This picture was taken in December at my daughter's wedding.

This is me having fun @ work. I am 37 years old, I'm a self employed general contractor by day and razor restorer by night. I have a wife and two beautiful children, my daughter is 3 and my son is two. With all that being said time is scarce for me but I always find time for my passion of stones, razors, woodworking and soon steel forging. I really want to say how much I appreciate Bruno and Glen for providing us all with this awesome opportunity to learn, share and connect to like minded people.

Hi my name is Tom White. I am 54 and a machinist. I am married with two kids. A girl 23 and a boy 22.
Been into wet shaving almost 2 years. SR for 6 months now. Looking forward to learning a boat load here. Hope to make my own straight.

No I do not play the banjo. I could only wish that. The wife and I were antiquing. No straights, so time for a didy.
