If you want to get a new straight razor for yourself, I have had very good luck with a seller who calls himself:
april7th1989
He has a LOT of straight razors on ebay and his "shave ready" (in my experience) really means SHAVE READY!
Just did a quick search on ebay and found 791 results for shave ready straight razors under april7th1989.
Not all of his razors are shave ready.

As a starter I prefer Solingen blades (due to the Solingen reputation.) Add the "solingen" parameter and you will find 215 razors.

If memory serves me correctly, he is located in or near New York City.
