Oh, and lets not forget "Whipped Dog" razors. I dont know if they still do the "sight unseen" sales, but they supplied an awful lot of new shavers with their first taste of straight shaving!

Went over some suggestions and I already have soap and a brush (when I shaved I do safety razor I believe its called). Now I'm ready to do sr, finally have the courage to go for it lol. So I just need a strope and starter sr. So open to suggestions and I guess keeping it between 40-80 for my first.

Framebacks are easy to maintain/hone, it not too big/small, won't break the bank and is shave ready. Whats not to like?

Its not the way I would go about buying a razor. What you get might be fine. But who knows what you'll get. At sixty dollars, I would hold out for something else. And if you're like everyone else that passes through here, you'll look back on it and say that you should have done something else. GSSIX posted a good looking razor on FB yesterday. I don't know if it is still available. You might PM him. Originally Posted by Izsd858
