Thread: Looking to Turn One into a Shaver

Nice razors. Personally I would start with your 7/8 W&B if you have a thick beard and sensitive skin. But that's just my advise so take it for what it's worth.

Welcome to SRP! If the scales are good and none of the blades have visual cracks or large chips at the edge I would send at least the W&B and the Boker hollow. Wouldn't hurt to have a pair and if one style of grind doesn't suit you at this stage of the game the other might.

Here is the SRP Wiki with many tutorials relating to all things regarding the SR shave.

Definitely the hollow Boker. It's a regular sized razor in what is normal grind. The wedges are uncomon for various reasons, but regardless of those reasons I think best way to start is just a high quality regular razor, which the Boker is.

The w&b/rodgers is one or the other, perhaps you're confusing the case - look at the shank of the razor, not at the box. Large size and heavy grind for me is not a good combination for learning, even if you end up prefering those in the long run.
