    Try something different.
    Go for a 6/8th quarter hollow.
    They are the best grind generally imo.
    Buy a Wade n Butcher, best steel ever ,best edge best feel.. According to me.

    After a quick look I can say that at this point in time there razors are not for me. I'll have to have another look when I get home but the shape just isn't right for me

    Have you considered a new Boker? They are great shavers.

    You have a half hollow so if your a timid type of person when it comes to exploration I would buy something like what you have, you already like it. Now if your ready to try something different,Mao with a full hollow. A big majority of barbers used them and the Germans got a big share of the market making the m, so there's something to that. As to shave ability, doesn't matter, it's preference, my beard is wire cable and I shave with all types of grind it's the edge, and that depends on the man honing it,malus the steel. Not the grind. Buy what you like, but if I were you buying new, it would be a Ralph Aust. I really only buy customs but if I were to buy new that's what it would be. Tc

    The problem I have with Ralph aust is there doesn't seem to be a reputable seller here in the uk

    Excellent razors. They take a keen edge and keep them. Easy to maintain.

    Well depends on your budget, and if you have to have new or used. If you send me a PM I can advise you on some top quality razors that I have that I could part with.
