most of those names are good ,,, but a name aint what will shave you,,, learning what to look for in a razor is the key. get you a decent razor that's already ready to go and shave with, then you will be able to see what needs to be right on future purchases, buying razors that need work right now isn't what you need, you need a decent shave ready razor. your really not saving any money if you need a complete restore to make it shave, B/S//T has them inexpensive all the time, sometimes for not much more than a good honing fee Tc
