Hi. Welcome to SRP.
You've found the right place for this new interest of yours

The 2 razors you are mentioning are both great shavers, and they would serve you well for decades to come.
If they are a bit on the price side, then I recommend, as you have already done, looking at the classifieds right here on SRP.


The standard recommendation we usually give is to find a razor in the middle of the spectrum, meaning both size and grind.
However, any properly sharpened razor will work.
My personal recommendation for you would be a 5/8" or 6/8" sized razor. Half hollow or something like that will work fine.

If you feel at all troubled by buying products from strangers on the internet, let me just tell you that I've seen so many razors sold from the classifieds, and so many happy shavers as a result
I myself have bought a bunch from there, and I am nothing but super happy about every single transaction.

Another tip is to use some time reading in our WIKI.
It is a great resource for a lot of the questions you have, and will have, as soon as you start shaving!
Feel free to ask if there is anything on your mind, there are a lot of really great and knowledgable guys in here. And they are more than willing to help out
