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!

Brian Brown Razor Works has several beauties. I also think that Portland Razor Co. makes a nice razor for that price.

Brian Brown Razors. Tough to beat for the price.
Another good choice is Jerry Stark.
Both Brian Brown and Jerry Stark offerings are solid razors made by genuine craftsmen; you can't go wrong either way. Nice thing is they are custom/semi custom goods so you have many choices as to how to set it up "your" way.Last edited by Phoenix51; 04-06-2016 at 11:45 AM.

I second the Portland razor co! I love mine. For that price you can almost get two. Great deal for a handmade American razor.

If I had $300 to spend on a semi custom, it would be a 7/8 square point from Brian Brown.
