Hello all,

I've been thinking about getting into straight razor shaving for quite some time. I've done quite a bit of reading and watched youtube videos, but one question I haven't found answered is regarding blade quality of products made by the same manufacturer.

As someone just looking to begin, I find the wet shaving kits at Straight Razor Designs quite attractive. Of course, not having shaved with a straight razor before, I'd like to keep my entry cost low while not sacraficing the quality of the razor too much.

That said, are there any quality differences(when it comes to the blade) between products like the Dovo Best Quality 5/8 and the Dovo Forestal 5/8? Is the price difference due to the difference in scales and designs on the razor, or is it in the quality of the blade as well?

Thanks in advance for all of your help in setting me straight!
