So far my shaving attempts with a straight razor have been in the mediocre range at best. One of the things is that all of the razors I have used have a square point with which to gouge my neck . I will admit that they make it easier to trim around my newly grown goatee . A quick check of the finances shows that I can afford to indulge myself a bit.
I would appreciate your opinions in this matter.
No matter which one I choose I intend to order it "Pre Honed" just to be sure...
I am looking at these razors:
I have handled this one and thought it felt quite nice. I also like the idea of a SS blade.

This is under consideration:
Thiers-Issard "Super Gnome" White, 6/8

I don't care for the feel of this one as much as the Renaissance, but it receives high recommendations from many shavers.
