    Default Road to ruination, no turning back now

    I have been an admirer of Bruno's razors from day one but they seem to be just a bit out of my price range (how can you place a value on a pearl of great price?). Talking with several people I know who own his work and also talking to Bruno himself, I had decided I need to find one in a price that I can afford that is when TC stepped in. He directed me to an unfinished 10/8 smiler that needs some finishing touches like a set of scales, hmmmmm. Thanks to EisenFaust I should be receiving my Bruno razor in about a week or so. What to do? What to do? All that money wasted on therapy and recovery groups down the drain, I could have spent it on razors and razor related products, damn. Now the waiting beggins

    The rest is in the library of everything known as the SRP Wiki and the workshop forums

    Good to hear the binge is out of your system, then you won't be tempted to buy the Sheffield type massive chopper done by Bruno, blade only in the Classifieds.....

    Nice! Have to admit, that's a superb looking razor, will be an awesome chopper...look forward to seeing in when it's all dressed up. What are you thinking for scales, traditional horn, or maybe some newer Kirinite flash??

    Hadn't gotten that far yet. I'm still fighting of the convulsions of withdrawal.

    Funny thing, a guy in Belgium makes a razor. A guy in New Zealand buys it, but decides to sell it. A guy in Canada tells a guy in Tennessee ......... 20 years ago, before the world wide web, none of this could have happened.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Yea, the crazy interweb...awesome!

    And the guy in Canada buys a Bruno blade from a guy in New Zealand 6 months ago, get's it all dressed up pretty in blue Kirinite scales, decides it needs a better home where it will be used regularly, pops it in the Classifieds and it's now on it's way to it's new owner on the West Coast of the USA...and the circle, is unbroken.
