Hello all! I am BRAND new here!! First post (WOOP!). I recently got started with DE shaving, picked up a Muhle R89 with a Rose Gold handle. Then, of course, that wasn't enough so I had to pick up a Merkur 38C. To go with that, I have AoS Sandalwood and the AoS brush (which needs to be replaced).
Anyway, I am getting married on May 30th, and as a gift for my Groomsman, I wanted to get them some DE supplies. I need some help with my decisions!! As far as the razor, I can't decide between the....

I am really only going to get them the 3 things, and try to spend less than $70 per guy. The razor is the thing I am mostly on the fence about, but would certainly listen to other recommendations!!
Look forward to hearing your responses and spending more time in the community!!
Thanks!
Brandon.
