Hi everyone, I'm just starting to look in to what it would take to set myself up with a straight razor kit, but I'm on a tight budget. Considering that it would cost me $50 to get a safety razor kit at CostCo, I'm willing to go double that on a kit.
I've noticed this blade in the classifieds...
Casco by Field Cut. Co. Germany – 11/16”, celluloid scales - Straight Razor Place Classifieds
and these on Amazon...
Amazon.com: Fromm Straight Razor #72r * 5/8" Round Point: Health & Personal Care
Amazon.com: Fromm Straight Razor, 5/8": Health & Personal Care
I've noticed Fromm is not in the list of Brands to Avoid, but then again I don't know much about any brands at all.
Asides from the blade I haven't done much research yet. I think that in a severely limited budget I should be trying to get the best blade for my money and then be worrying about the other items in the kit, no?
Thanks anyone for responding and I hope I can try a straight blade soon enough!
