Dzanda,
A good razor point for you would be either a French or a square. Because of their design, they are ideal for shaving around the beard.

A round point will work. A square/spike/French is handy though.
I started with a spike and survived to tell my tale..... and yes, I have had many beards over the years so this isn't a blind testimonial :)
I have both square and round point razors and see no difference.The thing is I shave with both hands so all the detail work around my beard gets done with the heel.
What they said. Where your hair grows under your bottom lip. I do notice some guys don't grow hair there very much. I'm unsure of what my 'configuration' is actually termed, I have a moustache, soul patch and goatee all separate from each other. I think the closest terminology is a Van Dyke with a moustache...
Good to hear from you Frankie, you've been quite silent. Not back in the attic again are you?
Intentionally blunting any blade just seems so WRONG! :nono:
But I may find that I need to take you up on your suggestion. Thanks.

We all just had this convo
While I am also new to this, only 2 months into it, I have a goatee as well. I have round and square point razors, and they both shave around my goatee the same because I use the heel to shave around it. This brings up a point that I learned, if you send your razor(s) out to be honed make sure and tell them you use the heel to shave around your goatee (if you end up doing so) because some folks don't really hone the heel because they may not use it.
