Hi guys! My name is Greg and I am completely new to straight razors. I am very excited to get into this interesting hobby. I have been checking out this forum a lot and could not resist becoming a member after reading the information that you all have shared. Now down to business: I looked on SRD and many many other websites and I really like the DOVO Silver Steel Prima razor. If you guys think this is a good idea, I plan on getting it in a set with a black 2" latigo strop, a Simpson B4 Pure Badger brush, a mug, and soap. I am looking for the bare essentials now, but I do not want to buy inferior quality and end up upgrading in the near future. Do you think that this is a good first razor (since it is on SRD, it will be shave ready) and that I should get this set, or do you have other recommendations? I really have my heart set on this razor, but I am open to ideas. Thanks a ton guys!
