Thread: New help picking my first straight razor.

This is my first post so , Hi

I've had my eye on getting a Boker king cutter 5/8 but I'm open to getting a vintage.
I'm clueless on what vintage to get or where to go.
My budget is 130 euros including shipping ( thats what I'd be paying for the Broker) I would love it if it was over hundred years old and from sheffield + well made. Was looking at this one (Don't know if its good for a begginer though), http://www.ebay.ie/itm/Early-JOSEPH-...item1c4a6f83f3

Any help and suggestion would be much appreciated
It needs to be shave ready and easy to maintain an edge as I am a complete virgin (although, I have been using a safety razor for about a year now)
Also, I have already bought a strop.

Or, should I just go ahead with the Boker.
Thanks,
