Hi all, I wonder if I might borrow your experience and expertise?
In a few weeks I am marrying my partner of 9 years. He has always wanted a cut throat razor so I thought it would make a nice present for him on the morning of the wedding (Don't worry we'll stick with the Mach 3 for actual practical purposes until post event!)
I have a fairly modest budget of around £200 but I would be willing to spend a bit more if it meant a big difference in product. I have tried to do a bit of homework and I find myself drawn to the TIs- but is this a good idea with my budget or would I get more bang for my buck with a Dovo? Or sometthing else altogether?
My partner is a carpenter and really appreciates quality craftmanship, I would also prefer to get him a wooden handled razor. Obviously the razor needs ro be suitable for a novice (although hes not a complete idiot) but I would also prefer that it stands the test of time and that hes not going to want/need a different one in a years' time.
If anyone could recommend something suitable and a little bit special then I would be really ever so grateful! (we're in the UK)
