Been wetshaving for about 6 months (merkur 1903 DE) and have gotten the str8 itch. Spent the past 3 days glued to the computer on an ebay auction only to lose at the last second. Screw that; rather discouraging. I would like some advice on what to buy new, or if any members have advice on a razor they have for sale. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Plan on getting the hones and everything in the near future, but right now I just want a good razor that I can have honed and get started shaving.
