I would suggest finding a older shave ready razor, from the classifieds maybe and start from there. If you want to get a GD later to practice your honing etc at least you will have a measure of what a sharp razor is.

    Good choise.

    Im new as well, just started str8 shaving 7 months ago. Gold dollar was my 1st shaver(at that time I had'not discovered SRP). and was horrible especially it wasnt shaved ready.
    I've seen quite many people had their 1st shaved with bad razor & stop continuing str8 shaving. So Imo 1st gear on 1st shave is important.

    GoodLuck

    Sometimes the smallest thing can be just hilarious.

    I would recommend going to an antique store or a flea market and just keeping an eye out for a good looking SR, I went out and bought a Dovo from a shop brand new but i hardly shave with it anymore i use my 14 dollar W&B that i picked up. rather than spend a bunch of money on a new razor buy a cheap razor and clean it up
