I have a short beard and long mustache but miss safety razor shaving. Itll be mainly for my neck, but still want a nice set. Any recommendations on a safety razor set-up? Budget would be max $500-$1000. Thanks everyone!

    Thanks!! Any ideas on which brand has a better quality brush or just go for a badger brush?

      I’m a bit more utilitarian in this area, however if you just focused on full badger on the brush and find what appeals to you, you’d be good.

      I like the vintage razors as they tend to be proven, solid, and American made.

      Chisel and Hound, and Dogwood Handcrafts make great brushes and set them with great badger knots if you wish so. AP shave Co has good one, too.

      Declaration Grooming has a legendary reputation, but the quality isn’t worth the price IMO.

      If you want to set a knot yourself and get a handle separately, Maggard Razors’s SHD knots are a great option.

      If you aren’t set on badger, Zenith has fantastic boar and horse brushes
