I am sure that I am putting too much weight into this, but am envious of the larger designated razors and their properties of "practically shave for you" and don't wish to start off on the wrong foot.
I have been going through the same thing in my mind, for exactly the same reasons (or at least similar, depending upon the breadth of your definition of "handlebar"). (In my case, I've been speculating how shaving my chin is going to work without bevelling my moustache.)

I do like the idea of the Filarmonica pair (the 7/8 and 3/8) listed on Classic Shaving. (Functionality aside, the appearance of the 7/8 is also more "my style" than the more decorative models available.) However, I'll probably start off with a lower-cost, SRP-member-owned 5/8 like most folks recommend to see how things play out, prior to buying a more expensive razor (or razors).
