Really beautiful... I like it!

Gary,

Thank you for choosing an American razor to bring to perfection. I will just let it pass. If it were German, I would pay any price. This is a true beauty.

Why, of course. Small typo. Really! :w

Yeah... there's a reason we detached the English from the continent. We were building a giant motor to attach and sail them over to you guys, but of course BeBerlin had to reveal the plan :(

Beautiful scales...again!

Me =)

Gary I'm honestly saving every hilarious post you write like this. I mean, I know it's true and all, but I'm saving it anyway. Right now I have at least 4 plus the Fabulous King Tut Razor ad. Maybe I'll publish a book one day.

I can't wait to try this razor out....that beak tip wedge just drew me in....:D:D:D

Alex,There are lots more,but most of my posts get deleted right away,cause they are such "nasty crap",dont know why,but cant help myself.....even when I 'm taking my meds I write a "crap" post every once in a while(more often than that according to most)I'm trying to be more correct,but I'm an old dog.Best Regards Gary

Just a public message for Gary. I got the razor today and shaved with it...here's my impression.

-Packaging was very nice. I appreciate the extra pins, and the honing instructions.
-the razor was beautiful. I'd be interested in some of your other "less than perfect" razors anytime..;)...whatever flaws it has are of absolutely no consequence to the looks or performance of this razor.
-This thing shaves beautifully. I have become quite fond of the older British razors, especially wedges, as they seem to be more forgiving with my extra heavy and coarse beard.

Overall, for those of you who haven't yet done business with Gary....go for it! It was a real pleasure, sir....I will definitely be back.
