Thread: First straight razor, Ralf Aust or Revisor

Honestly I could care less how many people work at them. I see no relevancy to that point. They are producers of large volumes of straight razor that deliver their products to to consumer or reseller without them being ready for use. That's is the whole point. It is odd that any item would require further work in order to be able to use it. A new items is most often ready to use, except for razors. I find it unusual. You obviously do too or you would not have posted #18

This is the same reason for buying from someone like Lynn and Don. SERVICE. Try getting the quality, service and pride on ebay. Their help when I started was invaluable. Got the right razor, strops, stones etc and they took the time to answer my questions without making me feel like a idiot. With Lynn and Don, you get a Ready to Shave not Shave Ready. Has my Loyalty no matter what products he's selling.

I'll stick with my original terminology. "shave ready"

What does "shave ready" mean?

But don't forget that for some of us, putting an edge on a new razor is half the fun. For as many people that find it an inconvenience, there's probably just as many that wouldn't have it any other way. But I understand why it would be important for many to have it come ready to go.

There's one thing left out of this statement. They CARE ABOUT THERE COSTERMERS. In this day and age that's a rare quality and should never be over looked. just my 2 1/2 cents worth
