Hello,
I am a shavette user and I am willing to start shaving with a straight. No setup for the moment, but I think with your help it won't last long.
Blessings to all

Hi GoReds, welcome, where are you?
Welcome. Lots of great people here. Put where you live in your profile.
If you are just starting check the buy, sell, trade forum. Personally I would go with a restored or refurbished vintage round point shave ready. They would be less expensive than new so you are not out a bundle if you don't like it. Go slow as it takes time to master (3-6 months at the minimum). Don't be afraid to ask questions. If you are not in a hurry I just finished a 6/8 SPROCK ( made by Friederich ERN, Germany) round point. Just needs to be honed. It will be every reasonable when I list it in a week.
Welcome. As Leonard says keep an eye on the Buy sell trade thread. Best place to find a razor ready for shaving. Take a few minutes and check out our library. Its full of great info for a newbie plus give the rules a quick read. They are not much but its best to know. Let us know where you are or atleast a general idea. Someone may be right around the corner from ya.
Welcome to the forum. Questions are good. There are so,e subtle differences in handling between a shavette and a straight. Ask away.
Hi and welcome aboard. Coming from the shavette will make it easier. Hopefully you are already using brush and soap and you have an understanding of the how and pressure. You really just need a decent razor and a strop.
As said check the classifieds and buy with confidence knowing you will get a razor in good condition ready to shave with. You won't find folks more willing to help so dont be afraid to ask.
