    Default 400 dollar budget what to get

    So I'm thinking a wacker 7/8 Spanish point, a filarmonica 14, dorko, heljestrand or hart steel

    What would you guys think?

    If it had to be from that list it would be the wacker. If it were my $400 I would hang on to it until something unusual that i just had to have came up, but then again I'm just weird.

    That's a good budget to work with offering lots of options.

    Funny you would mention the Heljestrand. we were just looking at one on another thread "Another eBay for your consideration".
    But you would have to add nearly $800 more to purchase it.

    I think I would go with Ralf Aust, quality, class, reputation and I especially like the name.

    I would take this:
    straight razor for all requirements - BOKER Solingen, Germany
    And go for a drink with friends with the saving

    I'm not sure, are the SRP razors all taken? That would be something for you to look into as its a top notch razor for the $$$$

    Not to diminish any of their work because I think it's absolutely incredible but I prefer the choices I stated above to add to my collection
