Leaning towards the 200. Thinking I gotta jump on the lifetime hone warrenty, make a desicion tonight.

    the B & B makes a fairly good letter opener and not much else. i am with all the others on the kit from ruprazor. i think you will be more satisfied. i have a gold dollar razor also and it is a great shaver for the money.

    Smills,
    The 3 month honing service is a great deal... that I wish I had... I bought 2 shave ready straight razors because i was afraid I'd mess one up before I figured out how to keep it sharp and I did... I have sent mine off for repair for the standard 20.00 plus shipping... have to do it... to buy the stones you need to hone would cost 200.00... plus months of practice before I'm good enough to hone my razor to a sharp enough edge to shave with.. this deal from rup razor is great... if you have another razor... use it to practice with on the strop...proper stropping requires some practice too... so practice on your strop for several hours before you take your new razor to the leather... My mentor had me practice on my strop with a butter knife for two days before I used my new razor on it.. Ifyou'll practice the technique with something a little less sharp than your new razor you may save a few nicks on your new strop! you can ruin a strop with too many or too deep nicks in the wrong place!! good luck and have fun.... Maq
