Thread: Your favorite razors in the $200-300 range

I know there is no "best for$" as every ones taste are different. But I would like to know and see pictures of your favorite newly manufactured razors in the $200 to $300 range.

The Dovo bergischer Lowe sure is pretty. I think you can pick up a nice Revisor or Wacker in 7/8 to 8/8 for that kind of money.

I do want a Mastro Livi but want it custom to my exact wants when I can afford it. He has quoted me on it already but I'd have to sell a rifle to get it right now. Haha

Razors in the $200-$300 range the answer is simple.......I can't afford one!

Well. I can't afford one not need one but I'm putting away a bit each week to buy a nice new razor. I have some great vintage ones and used ones. My favorite is my ralf aust I purchased from a member on here. It's great. Thinking about a 6/8 size now as all of mine are 5/8. No big deal but I have the itch.

I bought this one when it was on sale, and I like it a lot! It wasn't that much cheaper on sale,
so don't be disappointed.

I would avoid thiers issard, myself and many others have been disappointed in their quality control. For $300 I'd look for a really nice vintage razor, like a wade and butcher for barbers use. If it has to be a new one, then revisor. I don't have one but have looked quite a few times. Unfortunately I went on a splurge of late, buying a few iwasakis and a bruno custom wootz so I'm living on peanut butter and jelly and Ramen for a while!

As one suggested the Ralf Aust is very hard to beat as a razor at their price point! I have two and will buy more for sure. They hold an edge as good as any razor as long as you know how to maintain the edge.

My razors have remained under $275 and I plan to keep it that way. That said, I am intrigued by BBC razors in TN. I may have to try one of Brian's creations some day!

But I have Dovo; Boker; Revisor; Ralf Aust; PRC; and Jerry Stark razors. The last two are US makers. If I had to pick one country that does best it would be the German made razors. The Germans seem to do all things well for the most part. But I really will try most any reputable maker if the price fits my budget.

I finally got this from The Superior Shave, I've wanted one for a couple of years.
