Alright folks. I need some input from experts. Please help if you can.
I've been using the Thiers Issard Art of Shaving blade for a while now, and I'm ready expand. I've been looking at three Dovos... all 5/8"s. Two are stainless steel, one with the genuine snakewood handle, the other with genuine mother of pearl. The other is carbon steel, with the buffalo horn handle. They all seem like pretty elegant tools, but I can't make up my mind. Anybody have any strong input any given way?
Also, while we're at it, does anyone know where online you can order Tabac shaving soap to get in the United Kingdom?
...Hahaha, and while I'm posting, suggestions for a good, solid, starters, cheap honing stone?
