Ralf Aust
I can't say good enough about Ralf Aust razors. My first SR years ago was a Hoffritz from a retail store many years ago.....I abused it, and gave up on SR shaving. It now lives with Lynn for a (honing) resurrection.
In the last two months I got a new Ralf Aust from SRD and it was a smooth shaver from the start. Have now ordered a 2d. Now that they are more available, I'd suggest everyone try one. They are crafted in a wonderful manner and are excellent shavers...and reasonably priced....not fancy, but great for everyday use!Last edited by Haroldg48; 07-20-2013 at 07:59 PM.

I have the same razor and have been very satisfied with my purchase. It looks like they have several models back in stock at SRD.

+1. I used mine in rotation, every other day for two weeks recently. It was as good after the two weeks as the day Lynn honed it. Mine is a definite keeper.

My 6/8 Grenadilla round point is my favorite razor so far.

There is a 7/8 Aust on SRD as of a few moments ago. Someone will be a happy camper. I wish it was going to be me but it is not to be.

I have the 5/8 and 6/8 RP's and they are both quality shavers. I almost got a finger cramp yesterday when looking at the 7/8 at SRD, wanted to hit that BIN. But, I resisted, and...that's progress.

I can't help myself.....i loved the 5/8 so much I had to try a 6/8! I can't say enough good things about a Ralf Aust honed by Lynn!!
What a bargain from SRD!Last edited by Haroldg48; 07-21-2013 at 01:41 PM.

I did the same thing until my usually absent better judgement showed up and reminded me that I just bought a beautiful new Revisor that more or less identical that I've used less than a half a dozen times as of yet.

an opportunity.Bob
