My humble advice is to invest in a new razor. Do away with as many variables as possible when it comes to the care and maintenance of your tool. Nothing against Whipped Dog, I have purchased from him before and he is a stand-up Gentleman. But, older razors tend to come with issues that may complicate your learning curve. I encountered this myself in the beginning, then did myself a favour by investing in a new blade. I have a Dovo Best Quality 6/8 that I'm happy with. It shaves very well and feels good in the hand. The larger blade also accommodates a beginner looking to improve their stropping and honing technique. Also, if you have access to mentors/professionals in your area, make use of their services and knowledge so that you can concentrate on the basics of shaving, stropping and enjoying your newfound hobby! Food for thought... Cheers!
