Hi all, after much pondering i have decided to take the plunge into the world of straight razor shaving, i have experimented a little with a cheap shavette just to see if i could manoeuvre the thing around my face with out losing a load of blood, and i can! My first idea was to upgrade to a better shavette, a Feather or Kai, but i know me and i won't be entirely happy until i have a proper straight razor so i've decided to skip that step and put the money into a proper straight.
Now this won't be my primary means of shaving, i don't have the time in the mornings, and my budget is quite limited, but there does seem to be some well priced razors on reputable vendors websites, i just want to make sure that i'm not wasting my cash. With that said i've found the below razors:
https://www.executive-shaving.co.uk/product.cfm/product_id/7968
https://www.executive-shaving.co.uk/product.cfm/product_id/4342
https://www.executive-shaving.co.uk/product.cfm/product_id/7355
and this strop:
https://www.executive-shaving.co.uk/product.cfm/product_id/5943
With any of those razors and the strop will set me back about the same as a Feather shavette, is anyone of those head and shoulders above the others? or any that i should particularly avoid?
Any other advice would be gratefully received.
Thanks.
