Ok, so I have been looking around at new straight razors. I currently have 3 vintage razors and thought it might be nice to try something brand new out. I am having a hard time finding something that I like though in my budget range. I would really like to not spend over $200 on a razor. I am looking for something 6/8 or bigger, the more hollow the better, and pretty much anything but round point. I guess I am kind of still in the new guy price range, so it seems like everything that I am finding is round point. I would like to purchase from a reputable company that sends them shave ready, so maybe that is what is holding me up? If I had to, I wouldn't mind sending the razor out for honing once I receive it.
I know there has to be something out there, so if anyone could point me in the right direction I would really appreciate it. The brand doesn't really matter to me. Currently I have a W&B, Boker, and generic Solingen vintage razors. The W&B and Boker are both 6/8 I believe and I use them more than the Solingen which is smaller. The W&B is more hollow ground than the Boker, and I get a better shave and less burn with it when doing multiple passes it seems. Thanks!
