Hello to everybody at SRP, i am brand new to this forum and to straight razors, Last night i went to the Haridressers/barbers and i remember talking about Sideburns my Barber informed me that a straight razor is the only way to get a straight side burn/shave, Anyway after that i thought nothing more about it untill i watched reservoir dogs earlier today and saw a straight razor take of an ear .
Anyway i am looking to start of using a straight razor and i am getting quite confused, i would like a nice looking razor also one that will ast me a long time (for Life?) i love the look of Dovo of Solingen Straight Razor - Genuine Buffalo Horn, but there sounds like 100 other things i need to buy also i am guessing i need to send it off to someone in the UK (Near Herts/Essex) to get it sharpened or something any ideas? What do i need to buy for the first month or so?
