    Default looking for a 4th razor

    I have 3 great razors already, two vintage both are quarter hollow, and one new dovo full hallow. I have round and square points. And i really want to start a collection, i have been thinking about a Edwin Jagger razor, but i am open to ideas or what ever you guys would think would be the best.

    I'd say you are basically set for life with what you already got.
    Now you can just get whatever fits you budget and tickles your fancy
    I would have a look in the classifieds on here to see if anything would suit your taste!

    There's so much out there by way of steel, point, size, grind and decorations, that I recommend just about any reputable brand. Choose what you like the look of! You haven't said what sizes the vintage razors are, but may I suggest trying a larger blade? How about an extra hollow?

    I confused Edwin Jagger with Cyril R Salter, a mistake not to be made! As far as I know, Dovo manufacture for Edwin Jagger, but you already have a Dovo, and you wanted to try something new.

    My suggestion would be an antique wedge (or near wedge).

    my 2 vintage are 4/8 and my dovo is a 5/8 I enjoy using the 4/8s better cuz i find it more accurate. And i did not know that Edwin Jagger was with dovo. And my budget is like at $100-to $120 something like that.

    Heck, if you like 4/8 you can find a myriad of razors in that size for your budget. If you like precision you may want to try a spanish point.
