    Question Are these any good?

    Hey guys,

    I am still new to Str8 razor shaving... waiting upon getting my DVD and once I've done all my research before purchasing my first razor... I stumbled across these two particular razors... the price alone makes me feel they are not good, but I wanted to know what you guys think (who know good blades from crap) or what you can tell me about these guys?

    Here are the links:

    and
    http://www.amazon.com/MICARTA-HANDLE...8740461&sr=1-3


    Thanx in advance guys!

    Those are the ones to stay away from.

    If I had to start again on this I'd probably get my first razor from the B/S/T here, usually good razors there and most will be shave ready so you won't have to pay for sharpening. You can get a good price on a vintage one there too.

    What's irritating are the two blatantly false reviews for that first linked razor that claim it is a great product.
    Find me on SRP's official chat in ##srp on Freenode. Link is at top of SRP's homepage
