Thread: Help getting set up

The difference between the 70$ and the 200$ razor is usually bling(etches, gold wash, scalematerial), your best bet is to use the SRP classifieds to find a shave ready razor, good stuff at a fair price. Soaps and creams are a personal preference item, ask around and you'll get hundreds of varying opinions as to what is best and why. The primary difference between carbon and stainless steel is corrosion resistance, if you take care of your razor it wont matter which you use.
