First off thanks to all senor members who give great advise to guys like me who are looking to get started with shaving with a straight razor. The only thing I can say is a good razor isn't cheap and a cheap razor isn't good ( and all the other things that go along with shaving). So here what I started with and maybe it could give someone some idea of the cost to get started
1- The Merkur 5 Piece Shave Set Includes: for $115.00- Merkur 34C Double Edge Safety Razor
- RoyalShave PB2 Best Badger Shaving Brush
- 30 Degree Shaving Stand
- Omega Hard Shaving Cream
- Merkur Double Edge Platinum Blades, 10 Pack
-2 inch Red Latigo Leather strop $54.00
-Boker King Cutter $110.00
- AOF sample kit, Pre-shave oil, balm, $25.00
cream and brush
For a total cost of $304.00
So far I'm happy with everything I got.
Any thoughts?
