Anybody have recommendations for brands of straights that would most likely be on the inexpensive side that I could use to shave, but could do most of my practive stropping/honing with (as I am a newbie). I figured to start out with I would purchase a "good" blade that will be pre-honed by Lynn or Tony, and a practice blade to compare my honing/stropping with? This sound like a good idea?

Any suggestions where I should go about finding them, and how much money you think I should spend?

Thanks for any help in advance - since I have joined SRP everyone have been extremely friendly and helpful - thanks everyone!
