Help me choose a razor for $275

PayPal me the money and I will send you a shave ready zeepk.:)

Whacker, I have a half dozen of them, never had a bad one. Cant speek for Hart, never used one. You may even get a Williams around that price point if you look hard. I have a couple Williams, a few Chandlers, Livi, Dorko's and a slew of vintage blades. I enjoy all of them and there is not a bad shaver among them. Once I had a 7 day set I started working on a one month set. Once I hit a one month set I started working on a one quarter set. Once I hit a one quarter set I started working on a 6 month set... It never ends.

Yeah, I'd go for a top end TI for that sort of money.

I got a TI Spartacus Dreadnought from Steve at The Invisible Edge. That really is a stunning shaver and a great looker to boot.

If I was you I'd get something old, I'd look through the Rarities section in Revisor and remember you'll need to send it to be honed afterwards so add that to the price... I like the look of this:

Raritäten der Woche Galerie

and this:

Raritäten der Woche Galerie

And alot more....

I hear fbones24 Wacker can have some quality control issues so keep that in mind, though their steel is super it is a fact and you should keep that in mind.

Let us know what you decide. :)

Its on this page about half way down.

It says they're out of stock at the moment, but dont let that deter you, they were out of stock when I got mine as well. I emailed Steve first, pre-paid and asked him to pick me out one with that really lovely marbled effect on the scales. As soon as they were in Steve shipped the razor out to me. From my first email, I had the razor within a fortnight and it came very shave ready too.

It looks like all the "dreadnaught" razors are out of stock. I have had my eye on those TI Spartacus razors for a while now.

You may want to check this link on their site:

TI is a premium brand and the dealer send you a shave-ready one.
Also Martin in Germany sent me only shave ready TI.

If they are out of stock in UK here you get a link to Martin Nienberg in Germany
RasurPur Online Shop - The finest tools for a perfect shave

He has a lot of TI, but I think ... no Spartacus
