You can find TI with a few US vendors, but he's right, even their base models are nearly double what dovo prices, and about 20-50 more than boker. There are new dovos and bokers out, but not loads of different designs at a time. Looks like two or three w/in the last year. Straight razors are a niche market, so manufacturers run limited quantities, which is usually why it takes so long for vendors to restock. I waited two months for Lynn to get the ebony spikes back in stock; while some sites discontinued it or still haven't restocked that make at all. It doesn't help that there are really only 4 maybe 5 current manufacturers that I can think of off hand: Dovo, Boker, TI, Henckels. Am I missing any? That's good razors though, not krieger, B&B, and the other cheap knock off pakistani/chinese junk novalty razors.
