I am in that camp too. There are of course occasions where screws may be more fitting, modern forms and materials come to my mind, for example CF and G10. I will have to go with the trends a bit, and use those materials too, and I think I will use titanium screws with them. Ofc my preference will be pins, and will use them everywhere I can, but more and more people tell me that they want screws too.

Beautiful razor,understated elegance that highlights the makers skill . Kudos Sir !

There is a seller on eBay, he lists undyed camel bone frequently for reasonable prices, his name is robsbits, and is based in the UK. I hope I don't break any rules with this, I am in no means related to him, I just buy frequently horn, bone, and abalone shell from him.

I wasn't exactly looking to get some. Just curious. I usually prefer wood.

Thanks!

I like wood more too, but sometimes I can't convince the buyer to get wood instead

A little larger than I like to shave with but AWESOME looking razor!

Very nice razor, the bone looks sweet. Are you based in the UK also?

Nope, not even close I am located in Hungary, not many of us are visiting SRP frequently.
