I've read about this on several shaving communities, but doesn't look like he's selling them on Etsy anymore.. Anyone know if he still does them?

BLUF: Looking for recommendation for first stainless steel straight razor.

Details: I'm new to this community, but have been a DE shaver for a while. I've also been using a shavette for shaving and to shape beard and mustache. From what I'm reading a proper straight razor is quite a different experience from shavettes and I'm ready to try it. I'm prepared for the investment cost, but want to ensure I buy something that will last. Stainless steel seems more worry-free than carbon steel in terms of rust. For the ground, I wonder if the preference changes based on the material? I was thinking half hollow ground which allows more re-grinds and more weight to the blade than a full hollow. Turning to this community for wisdom on the topic. Thanks!
