Hey everyone,
ready to to finnaly make the switch to the straight razor, slowly of course. Have been doing research and I'm stuck on what kind of razor to buy. I really like the doves and some of the ones at the art of shaving. The thing with art of shaving is that it seems very commercialized. And quite over priced. Either way glad to be on here and looking forward to learning the tricks and in outs of shaving with a straight razor.

Hey, JimmieJr! Welcome to Straight Razor Place.
I agree with you about Art of Shaving razors being overpriced. I personally recommend buying from the vendors that advertise here. The Ralf Aust from Straight Razor Designs was my first razor and I have not regretted my purchase.

Or a vintage from the forum classifieds. Or a maybe not good looking razor but cheap and shave ready from whipped dog. I have a mild old stuff obsession, don't see why anyone would buy new when quality and old are available. Each to their own though. All the best learning, dmnc.
