Some months back my mother in her rummaging discovered two straight razors once the possession of one of my grandfathers...I know not which one. She bestowed one on my brother and the other on myself as keepsakes.
I brought mine home and cleaned it up and decided what the hell. I stropped it well on an old heavy leather utility belt and the next morning shaved with it. It was a new experience and I didn't have to negotiate my chin and upper lip as I wear a moustach and goatee. It was a slow shave and not the closest shave but I drew no blood and had the satifaction of knowing it was the first time that razor had been used in at least sixty years.

Sorry to hear about your misadventure with the razor. I hope you're OK!
