I personally test shave each razor before final disinfection. Shave ready is different to each person. Factors like light or coarse beard or beard length come into play. I have a heavy beard and test shave every razor on a two day growth. If razor gives a close comfortable shave I call it shave ready. If it does not shave right I re-hone the razor.

Payment due in three days.

Free USPS First Class shipping to U.S. only. Optional insurance $2.75 extra. If not insured seller is not responsible for damage during shipping.
Outside U.S. I pay first $4.00, buyer pays balance. Optional insurance varies by destination and will be calculated before payment.

Thank you
$50.00

Nice razor. Very good price on entry level Wade&Butcher. 'Shave ready' is easily half the price. Good luck.

I would like to buy this razor.
What would be the price to ship to Australia?
I've only just got back onto this forum (I thought it was defunct) so may not check back every day.

Hey guys. As far as I'm aware, USPS still has a suspension on mail to Australia. You can use other postal services but the cost can be crazy expensive. Leonard's last two batches of 'for sale' razors had some gems that I really wanted but had to pass due to the postal issue. Just a heads up

I just looked and saw none on USPS First Class.
