Hello all, I've been hanging around this forum for a while trying to get some information about straight razors. I'd like to buy one and get started using them but I'm in a bit of a bind. I've been a DE user for about six months now and I've got great results from them, but my blade supply is starting to dwindle and I've decided that a straight razor might be an excellent investment. I would like to buy a good shave-ready razor for a relatively low price, as well as a good strop for it. As I said, I've been a DE user for a while and I have a good Vulfix brush, classic shaving's soap, and some various aftershave treatments. I wouldn't like to spend a large amount on the razor as I'm on a slightly limited budget. I've been looking at Tony Miller's stuff off of his site and I like what I'm seeing, but I'm still not a 100% sure what I would like in terms of razors.
I need a cheap price on a good razor so I'm beginning to think that purchasing a new one is out of the question. Could you guys give me some insight in how to go about getting a good razor and strop?
