Welcome to the SR ranks!
Sending it to Lynn was an excellent choice. He will get it good and sharp for you to shave with for quite a while :)
One of the reasons I switched was to save money as well, but honestly, unless you have an iron clad will, that won't happen.
I have picked up SEVERAL razors, hones, and other various items, and I'm afraid to think about the grand total to date LOL
You might want to google any vaccines for RAD and HAD (Razor Acquisition Disorder and Hone Acquisition Disorder) :roflmao
Seriously tho, welcome!
