I was curious what brands are better. as i too purchased a zeepk razor. recently found the forum with negative comments. now looking for better quality.

If you shop the classifieds here at SRP, the brand wont matter because the quality is there no matter what. Sorry about the zeepk burn. But the forum nenbers here have reputations to protect and are not anonymous yahoos out for the quick buck. Check out the classifieds and ask plenty of questions of the seller and other forum members. Youre luck is about to change!

Read that first. If you find a razor that looks good, but you're not sure, post here and we'll help you sort it out.

It would be easier and quicker to list the garbage brands rather than the good brands because there are so many of them and so few of the crummy ones.

I'd agree with nun2. In addition to knowing you'll get a good razor, it's also a good idea to get a shave ready razor from someone who's a good honer. That way you'll have something to compare to should you start honing, and it removes the "is my razor sharp" question as you begin to work on your technique.
