Stainless Steel SE

Hi all! I'm new to the straight edge hobby, and am very interested in beginning the learing process. I've been looking around the different vendors that you guys suggest but I haven't run into any stainless steel SE razors. I was wondering if I'm just reading the headings wrong or if I need to talk to one of the guys on these forums to secure a SS blade. I know that they are more difficult to hone, but I am eager to learn, if not the hard way! Any help you guys send my way is greatly appreciated, even if you just tell me to read more or search the forums more thoroughly... Thanks!

Check the Links. Classic Shaving has some and John Crowly often has a few too.

John Crowley has a pretty large selection of stainless razors.

Now the John Crowley razors come shave ready.
The razors from Classic are not shave ready.

Unless you drop an extra $20 but that will get'em honed by Lynn, so it's money well spent. You'd ideally want a well-honed razor as a benchmark and a practice piece to work on until it gets up there with the good piece.

I have a stainless DOVO my wife bought me from classicshaving. I'm quite happy with it.

Slightly out of a newbies price range though lol....although something to work up too

Lynn I want a 12/8 damascus full wedge with abalone scales from The Maestro. I wonder how much that one would cost....

Thanks for the feedback, but just another question...

What would be a good practice piece? What I mean more specifically is how much should I spend on the practice razor?

Are we talking practice for honing? or for shaving?
