Congrats! I myself decided to jump right into getting a straight razor, since I kept seeing eveyone say it's the best for sensitive skin, and gives the best shave above all else. I have three on the way and I haven't even had my first shave yet!!!

try all three in your hand, see which one you like most e.g. because of weight etc and stick to that one.Quote:

Just ordered from whipped dog and the postage is nothing and they do a poor mans strop. Excellent value for money. I live in France so the postage should be the same.
Haha, that's the plan! I hope to have all three shave-ready and see which one I like best.Quote:

The other tip I read here is Geofatboy's YouTube video series and I am glad I heard about him. The Parker Shavette razor that should be on the way to me via my daughters ~ if they have decided that, even if I have gone bonkers, they will play along with me ~ was featured on a video by him and he was impressed. So now I can't wait to try it out (Stupid expression I have to wait until after the 15th March!)
