Hello there everyone, how are you?

So, I've read a lot and also saw a lot of videos regarding straight razors. You guys got me convinced, I wanna start!

But I need help from the awesome community.

What do I need to begin? And most important, how can I begin with the least amount of money, but still have the best shave?

Where can I buy a great (but not so expensive) razor? (EBAY? I like Dovo and Thiers Issard)

Which one is a good Shaving Cream, and After Shave?

A good leather strop?

What about a badger brush, is there any good one that's not that expensive?

Is there anything else that I need, or that you guys recommend?


Thank you very much for the help! It's indeed much appreciated.
I was doing a good search online and finding good products but I'll leave up to the pros in the final saying.

Please help me in finding my gear without spending an arm and a leg...


Once again, thank you, and may we all have the closest shave ever!
