Thanked: 0the grrizzley truth
A week and a half after thossing out my last mach3 head and seeing that the price had gone up to 5$ for two heads which last me about a week. My beard is growing roots into my life. I'd like to let my face breath again. I told myself I wouldn't shave until I had a str8. 72hours of intense research later I find there is an art here. A connection with pure refinement of self...Now I remember a few days ago when I was wondering if I could get my chunk of obsidian sharp enough to shave with.
An act of pure respect, and focus.
Thanks all the old timers for laying the groundwork.
I just ordered an old ingersoll strop, shaving soap from aprilsboutique, and now I am searching for a blade. I lost a few ebay auctions on bokers, gencos and a puma was sniped from me at the last seconds...It is hard to find a quality, shave ready blade and though I do not know much of shaving I understand the importance of good steel.
So my beard grows....

Thanked: 8You should look in the classifieds here, there are plenty of shave-ready razors and it's definitely better than dealing with Evil-bay.

+1 to the previous post. There are usually plenty of good razors at good prices for starting with. Hell, anything beyond those razors are luxury IMO.

Thanked: 1you won't regret throwing away your Mach3, in fact once you're on your way with a str8 you'll be wishing you had started shaving with a str8.
Congrats on taking the 1st step

I would go with the advice above and get a straight off the classifieds, on ebay you will either pay a hundred dollars or more for a good quality shave ready razor, or you more than likely will get a cheap razor that needs work to get shaveable.
