Hello from Washington State
Thanks for adding me, I’m new to the SR and only just restored my fathers Dovo 24 Fritz Bracht. I have been using his for a few weeks. I need to get some of my own though money is tight with all my daughters med bills. If you guys can suggest something that won’t break the bank I would really appreciate it. I am thinking that with as new as I am a round tip might be the best way to go while learning. I’m 39 with three kids oldest is nearly 6 and the youngest is 7 months. Any questions hit me up!

Welcome to the forum. +1 on what Mark has already said. You will get a good deal there and if it says shave ready, it will be.
Good luck.markbignosekelly and Greybeard39 like this.Fact: Opinions are not the same as facts... Well, that's my opinion anyway

Welcome to SRP!!!!
As you can see, some really great folks and info here.
The Library is so full of info you can get lost in there for days.
The B/S/T area will be the best place to find a great razor for a great price as was mentioned.
Watch videos, read a lot and ask questions. We're here to help
Enjoy and have fun!!!!markbignosekelly and Greybeard39 like this.Look sharp and smell nice for the ladies.~~~Benz

We actually have quite a large PNW membership and have several meets in the area
You should put what city you are in on your profile and we can see if one of us might be able to help more"No amount of money spent on a Stone can ever replace the value of the time it takes learning to use it properly"

Welcome from just outside of Portland. If you are in the southern part of WA there are a goodly number of us in Vancouver and Portland standing ready to help. And if you are nearer to northwest WA you will be in gssixgun's area and quite worth your while to do a short hop to meet and yak with him.
