Greetings folks. I am new to Straight Razor Place and straight razor shaving ,and I just purchased these two razors off ebay, which I would like to use to get started. Just wanted to know your opinions on each razor and which one has the most potential for me to send off to be honed/restored. I know I will want to do this before putting them to work. The Geneva looks to be in better condition, but the other razor for the price I paid seemed to be a good deal as well. Thanks for the help.
