Japanese straight razors-western style

[Godfather]

More of an information request than anything else. Would love to get a non-kamisori grind Japanese razor but there are a plethora out there with very little info on makers etc..where to start?
So I wanted to tap into the font of knowledge that is ATG....
Thanks in advance.

What's your budget I can show you a nice Japanese western style razor for sale by a trusted Ebay seller if you tell me what you are prepared to pay.

Jamie do you remember the name of the guy who used to be on TSR over a year ago, always used to put up Japanese razors for sale, at one point it was every month. Can't remember his mate but I bought about 4 from him including a Filly sub cero good guy.

I think that £100 top end for me I think. There are just so many brands it's confusing!

A big thank you for the comments so far chaps!

This bloke is a specialist in them. I think they look lethal and cost a bit too but whatever turns you on! I would have to have a western style grind if I wanted one too as I am left handed. See under left handed on his site for double side grind.
