Well, I am being a beard-model in a hairdresser, and the die and shave and cut my beard for practise.
The hairdresser uses a straight razor to shave me, and I found it very easy on my skin, so I decided to buy one.
I found a really expensive and fine one, in a shop near where I live.

It was 1600 danish kroner, about 320 US dollars. Things are more expensive here because of taxes.

Can anyone tell me if this razor is a fine brand?

Should I oil the blade or something?
I have bought hones and strops, and I have that part kind of down, for a newbie anyway.

Since my buy I have bought more razors from ebay, mosty old one, to practise honing on, and because i like them.

I also bought a brand new dovo.

What is the finest brand of razor there is on the market?
