Hi all,
I'm looking for a few suggestions as to a decent razor or two to buy which I can use to practice honing and shaving with?
I have a TI that came ‘shave ready' from executive shaving.
I also have a Hayreddin from Barbarossa Brothers.
Neither of which I want to ruin. They shave well enough and stropping seems to be going well enough so far.
I have a 3,8 &12k stone, a full range of lapping films, balsa blocks and have felt, green, red and diamond paste on the way.
Open to all suggestions. The Gold Dollar W59 seems like an obvious choice, as do other GDs, however a ‘vintage' English or German would be nice too. Or all of the above.
Any/all advice appreciated.
Steven
