I was wondering which European straight razor manufacturers people would recommend*, probably that are in a similar price bracket to Dovo/Thiers Issard?
Also - are there any good Turkish/Kurdish manufacturers? I've always gone to traditional Turkish or Kurdish barbers for shaves (also for haircuts but (that's) less relevant) and I wondered maybe with a barbering tradition whether they'd have good manufacturers.
The list of brands to avoid seemed really long and a lot of them crop up on most of the online retailers which has made us a bit wary.
*apologies if the ‘recommendation' topic has been done to death, I went through a good few pages of forum topics but there's 96, I tried searching but it brings up every reference to ‘straight razor', ‘brand', and ‘manufacturer' and searching titles didn't bring anything up.
