    Default Razors treated badly



    I felt compelled to relay a story to the st8 community based on a comment I had from Lynn regarding a couple of st8’s I sent to him... I buy razors from a local knife shop. He has a pretty nice selection of razors (Hen and Rooster, Puma, Dovo, Filarmonica etc.) that are in a pile under the glass. Basically they are being destroyed because they are treated horribly. First of all, as Lynn can tell you, he sharpens them with the wrong device. They edges look like someone took some sandpaper to it. Secondly, because they are in a pile, some of them look like they are several years old. The handles are loose, the blades are damaged and overall they look like $hit. (Sorry but it had to be said) BUT THEY ARE ALL NEW!!! I would like to say something, but this guy has been in the knife business for a while, and I am not sure it is my place to say anything. Anyone have an opinion? Advice?

    Buy everything you can from him real cheap, clean 'em up, and sell them to me cheap.

    As sad as it is, I wouldn't say a word. If he wants to destroy
    the merchendise in his store..... it's his money. Any words of
    advise from you could possibly be taken wrong.

    I would just let it rest.
