New guy considering moving from DE to straight
Hey all, I've been looking around for a cheap way to get into straight shaving as I don't have alot of money to throw into it and I'm not certain I'm ready to put away my DE razor just yet so I've been thinking about shavettes. Something like a parker sr1 or ptw. While I like idea of not having to worry about stroping and honing etc... they seem to just be missing that style and allure I think I'd enjoy from a straight. As far as straights go they definitely seem to be more pricey than the shavettes, along with needing to have the strop etc... So I'm torn on which way to go. I was looking at a Misaki straight online tonight that is a nice looking piece and definitely cheap enough (though I'd probably need to send it off to get honed as I'm sure it's no wheres near shave ready for $10) but not sure if a $10 razor is worth the effort.
Guess where I'm going with this is has anyone ever see/tried a misaki straight? Or a parker shavette?
thanks
