Thanked: 25Need help with choosing SR
I'm new to this type shaving. Presently using a Dovo shavette.
I would like to buy a singing blade SR.
Something with a resonable price without sacrificing quality; isn't that what everybody looks for.
I'm not sure where to look, or what to look for.
I hate buying things that I know so little about.
Any suggestions?

Whipped Dog is an excellent choice for a bargain priced, vintage shave-ready razor.
If you prefer a new SR, then a Dovo "Best Quality" is a good choice. Many of the online vendors who advertise here have them for sale.
Dovo used to make a "Prima Klang" singing razor (Extra Hollow Ground), but I haven't seen them for sale lately. Perhaps you can find one in the SRP Classifieds or on Ebay."Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." Mark Twain

You can also put a "want to buy" ad on the SRP Classifieds.
Keep your pivot dry!

Welcome to the forum.
It's not easy buying a first razor without any experience.
My razor is a Dovo silversteel with ebony wood scales, didn't regret it so far.
I don't have that much experience, so I can't give very much advise.
The only remark I have is, I don't know if a singing razor is the best to start with.
I think an average razor might be better.Sometimes I feel normal.
Then it's time to lay down and wait for it to pass.
