Hi Guys,

I'm looking to buy a razor from here and wondered if any veterans had bought from here and whether they are professionally honed rather than just factory honed?

Thanks

John

Why not email them? I believe it's Steve who runs the business and he advertises that razores are honed and inspected before despatch - but just get him to confirm it. I bought my first razor (a Dovo) from the related site and had no issues.

I have two TI's from Steve, both of them nicely honed.

They email back very quickly, normally within 24 hours in my experience. I emailed them the same question a few weeks back and they confirmed as advertised.

yea i would confirm with him first. I ordered the 7/8 dreadnought in buckeye burl scales, and he made everything right so far, but there were a couple issues with it. All could have been avoided if i had asked the right questions first, and it had been inspected prior to shipment.

What were the issues?

Fantastic, thanks all. I just wanted to get the forum view on things before going to the website but it sounds like the site/Steve is recommended.

Steve - if you read this I will be in touch.

Thanks
