I just received my first razor from them this last week, a Phoenix in maple scales, and a review with several pictures will be coming, as soon as I can get some time (2 full-time jobs, plus redoing the first-floor of my house, from carpet to wood-look tile at the moment). I can tell you this much - it's a beautiful piece of hand-crafted beauty. It's the heaviest of my razors right now and also my best shaver - leaves a BBS finish every time with minimal effort. Their strop (which you get at a discount if you order both at the same time) is also very, very nice. I already have a second order with them for their Kamisori-style razor. The wait time right now is a little long - 12 weeks, but this is due to 2 things: the huge demand they suddenly obtained due to the craftmanship/quality of their product at, what I and many others consider to be, a bargain price for what you get. Secondly, Scott, the founder was diagnosed with cancer and had to undergo chemotherapy, so was out of the workshop for a while - they notified all their customers right around Christmas on the website blog and always kept me updated on the wait time for my razor - a class act there. Luckily, he had already fully trained Hunter, who was able to keep up the production and fulfill orders, but obviously more slowly than if both of them were working. The great news is that Scott's newest testing shows him to be currently cancer-free and he is back at the workshop, so I expect their wait time to drop down again. I give them my highest support - the razor I received is truly beautiful and I can't believe the low price I paid for it considering the craftmanship involved. I can't imagine you would have to worry about any flaws or needing to return the razor - Scott and/or Hunter hand grind and polish each and every one, as well as the scales, and then hand-pin them.Quote:
