Thread: Time for an upgrade

A few months back I wanted to learn to shave with a straight razor, so I ordered a MR. C. Razor from www.williamsportbarber.com to practice, now I'm wanting to upgrade to a Dovo probably from http://www.dovorazors.com/index.html, but the shipping is expensive, what are some good sites that are located in the U.S.?
I will also need help looking for a strop because I don't know what to look for in quality.
Can you guys throw me some suggestions, thanks.

Straight razor designs - they're not overly expensive, they'll come honed with one free honing I believe and their service is unmatchably fast!

I have to also throw my hat in for SRD. I got a Dovo razor/strop set and it's great. I only wish it was a 3 inch strop instead of 2 but that was my own fault for not getting that.
