Yes, I have a Revisor. A lot of guys recommend Dovos as a first razor, but I honestly find revisors to be better value. I find them to be nicer razors, both in shave and aesthetics, and I like their prices a lot better. They also have a huge selection, as well as a selection of decently priced new old stock vintage razors. You could probable find one in your price range. Vintage would shave better than a new production, although I like how new revisors shave better than new dovos (I have both as well as vintage).
