I came across a deal and a half on a Chosera 1k stone. It was $59 over at Kramer Knives. So, I let my HADD kick in and ordered it, despite the $21 shipping charge. I got to looking again and noticed the price had gone up to $80. Eh, good things never last. Anyway, 2 days later, I have the stone. I decided to take the ultimate risk/challenge. I put in an order at Star Shaving for a G&F 501 tortoise razor with a 6/8 blade. Maybe I'm foolish. Maybe I'm just that addicted to hones and figuring out straight razors. I'm excited, even though my bank account isn't...
