So I've been wanting to take up straight razor shaving for sometime. I have been doing research but so much of the information is hard to understand that I don't know where to start. I'm mostly having trouble with a razor choice. There are so many different number and descriptions of the razor that i really don't follow. I will say that I have to shave everyday for work (military) and I grow a decent 5 o'clock shadow. I let it go on the weekends as I'm so used to having my face irritated by an electric razor or the 5 bladed disposables. I guess I'm looking for the best value for my money for where to start. An all-in-one kit would be great, but doesn't have to be that way. I would just hate to drop the money, and then not like it and be out a few hundred bucks. Any help would be great. This forum seems like a good bunch of guys so help me out anyway you can. Thanks guys.
