Chris, that is precisely my plan. I have another shaver that'll get done by a member here when funds permit. It was my grandfather's so I cannot put a value on that at all. I'll never part with it and I'll pass it on to one of my boys.
THIS razor was bought to learn on. I have never stropped nor shaved with a straight. I did not want to ruin Grandpa's razor.
My theory/ thinking was this....
Look in the classifieds and find a razor ready to go (shave ready). I've seen them there average low end prices of about $45.
So, with that, I got this razor for $33. Now, I have to send it out to get it honed and all for say $30 w/ shipping and all. I'm into a razor over $60 when I could've gotten one from classifieds for just $45.
That's my thinking and I could be WAYY off base. I suppose $15 is nothing to cry about with a lifetime investment. And, truth be told, I'll buy another from the classifieds before it is over with.
