I'm 18 and brand new to shaving with a straight razor. Performing in the musical Sweeney Todd made me want to try it out. Needless to say I fell in love with straight razor shaving. As of now I'm using a razor I inherited from my grandfather. I've gotten a strop, soap, and brush and I'm getting fairly proficient with shaving, honing, and stropping... Well getting the hang of it. I just wanted to know what quality razor I'm using. It's plain with no markings on the scales, which are black. American Razor Works, New York N. Y. Is stamped on the shank. I'm thinking of buying maybe a DOVO or something in the classifieds of SRP and keeping mine as a momento or keepsake. Does anyone know anything about this particular razor or the company?
