    You've been given some great advice on where to get your kit, but I'd just like to add that if you're thinking about straight razor shaving, get a straight razor not a shavette.

    Otherwise all you'll have done is spent the money on something thats almost, but not quite, what you want..!

    I'd have a look in the classifieds here as well, as there are some great razors there, and in the Vendors Corner. For a start, Dylan (holli4pirating) has a site that sells great restored and honed razors, so it would be well worth checking out his site to see if there is anything there you like...!

    Good luck and keep us posted!

    Alright so I found this used in my local area:

    Thiers-Issard Straight Razors

    It's the Thiers-Issard 7 Piece set.

    The guy claims it's only been used 3-4 times. How much would this set be worth?

    I might be able to get it for anywhere between 50-100.

    The price is right on the web page you linked in your post. Also note that we do not do appraisals here on SRP.

    Good luck in your hunt.

    I think you have answered your own question.

    If you can get 7 Thiers for that price, you can keep one or two and sell the rest on ebay and likely come out richer than when you started.

    Oh, and don't go for the shavette.
