    Default Thank you str8razor

    SRP has alot of good people, those who go above and beyond
    the call of duty. One of these is one of our Mods, Str8razor.
    I posted a query looking for someone to hone a couple of razors and
    Bill answered, saying he would do them for me. I sent him the two razors, a Geo Wostenholm IXL with horn scales and a Challenge cutlery with celluloid scales. The Challenge razor had a funky pin, it was ok, but stuck out way too far. When I got them back he had cleaned the blades up, put lanolin on the horn to preserve it, and re-pinned the Challenger with custom domed collars! Now I can't wait until my next shave, if only my beard didn't grow so slow. Anyhow, I wanted to thank Bill for everything and to let you guys know that it seems that only the best people shave with straights!

    Great people on this forum... I'm sure he wanted no attention for the deal, either, but good on you for offering praise where praise is due.

    Good show.

    if anything has been abnormal for a long enough period it then becomes normal.
