So, first post on Badger & Blade.
I'm staring into the rabbit hole that is straight razor shaving and amidst all of the threads and topics I've been struck with thinking too much; I've gotten hung up by width and grind. The sheer amount of configurations and combinations is mind-boggling and has caused some form of anxiety. Since I haven't even held a straight nor used one, I don't know what I like. Naturally, the only solution is to buy a blade and use it to develop preferences and so on.
I've been eyeing a sight unseen and a strop from either Larry or RocTraitor over on Reddit and frankly, I'm torn.
I don't need any advice regarding the actual process of shaving (yet) but really just what I should do.
