Hey all. Been lurking for a bit and decided to join the ranks. I am a total noob to straight razors. I have experience with wet shaving using a DE and am looking for something more and I think I want to give SR a shot.

I do not have a SR yet and have been looking around at suggestions. There is so many different things to think about.
I think I am leaning towards Ralf Aust from SRD.

I guess my big questions are on size and point. I think I read on here somewhere that 5/8 and a center point is a good place to start for a beginner?

Is there a big difference between the different types of points? I suppose I just need some insight on the sizes and points and determining my needs.
I have a large head and face so I don't know if that helps??
