Thread: The Butcher Shop

Thanks for the post Mike, although out of my price range, you'll get no hate from me. Good luck to you. As much as I would love to add one to my large Wade and Butcher collection, doesn't look like it will happen sadly now that I know the pricing :-(

Pretty sure, seeing as the "production locale" is in South Africa, Mike is saying that the new razor is $1,800 in South African Rand. So, that is roughly $138 in US dollars.

In that case, I'll take two...

Woot! That's more like it.

Given that he says incredibly costly materials and processes are to be used, I think he did mean $1800 USD.

That is my assumption as well...but we can always hope

He also said pricing inline with similar custom razors. $1800 seems high for that... I've never bought one but looking around... it seems two or three times what I've seen. Not saying it couldn't go that high but... all the bells whistles on a Korat, for instance, not the same ball park.
Damascus maybe.
Dunno
He's sell bucket loads if that's the S.A. Rands.

Sorry fellas...I meant that as a joke. Threw the smiley face in there but it obviously wasn't enough and I didn't mean it seriously.

I was hoping that bringing the Butcher brand back meant it was going to be a production company similar to Dovo, Boker, Thiers Issard, etc... It looks like, with pricing being in the upper thousands in US currency, this will just be a high end custom razor.

Not knocking Mike, he seems to be trying to do the right thing (maybe a little thin skinned) in honoring the brand. I guess when you look at the market closely, there really is no room for another production razor no matter what the brand is. I wish him luck.
