Thanks, yes i have been scanning the classifieds for over a week but can't find the right razor. I have been in contact with ken via email and he offers great pricing on beginner sets and responds to emails fast. I guess I just want this first razor I buy him to be special so I'm looking for a solid razor that makes him go WOW when he opens it but doesn't break my bank. I have also been on the introduction to razor site but once you convert to canadian dollars "ouch"!
