Do you recognise the little feller in there andy?
Did you know it was a mappin and webb lancet that inspired the design for my razor

Yes I saw the little fella Makes the Mappin seem tiny. Would be cool to find a Mappin Lancet to buy, but havent really seen any come up for sale.

From what i have read, there are a few about, but a lot of them are in pretty ordinary shape, so you have a lancet, india steel diamond edge, and what else on your wish list andy?

Yup - the Ottoman is on mine...and have a Masonic W&B and a, "Celebrated Fine India Steel Set Ready for Use" on the blade face in the shop now. The Ottoman, aside from some pics on here, never seen one before on eBay or anywhere else....but then again, never expected to see a George Brittain Iron Cross either...so patience and keep on looking....

Great looking razor man. Pic looks like an elephant riding a mouse. This guy makes some of the best blades I've seen. How do they perform? And who do I have to kill to get one? (Prefer to buy but murder is an option)

Just PM bruno, he will sort you out, i think you can buy through SRD as well. I did some research before i commissioned bruno, and he got good feedback from a few of the more senior members here, so i went with him, i am still only on shave 2 with this beastie and am still getting the angles etc right.

It looks a beast, I would take a couple of diazipan before attemting to shave with it myself. Defo going to pm bruno.
