Thread: My first attempt at SR shaving

Thanks again for your help.

I have a plain 5/8 RA and it is a great shaver. Getting it from SRD means that it will be shave ready so I would give that one a shot! Make sure you watch the videos on stropping as well so you don't dull your new razors like I did.
