Hi Folks,
I joined the forum a while back and have made great use of the 'review' section to help me choose the Merkur Progress as my first DE safety (excellent!), and have a Merkur slant (Barbers Pole-can't wait! ) on order from Lee's Razors..
So,the question is this ..I am about to plunge in and buy my first straight edge- if you guys had to go back and get just one straight what would it be, knowing all you do about razors and all your experience?
I have around £70 ($140) ish to spend and would like one to last a good long while
Also, what is the minimum kit to get with it for keeping it sharp - and any recommendations for sellers too?
Regards
Jem
