Hart Custom
I Recently got a Hart Custom 5/8 Satin Round Pt. Nice looking razor. The folks that I got it from indicated that the razor is “Shave Ready” from the artisan at Hart before its shipped to him. Also , indicated that folks at SRD can testify to this.
Has this been your experience.
Thanks,
Harry

Why not ask SRD? We don't know who you bought it from, and don't need to, but it's hard for us to answer what SRD would say about someone without knowing who they are.

Where I bought it should make no difference. The question is Shave Ready or not from Hart razors?

Hart razors are good utilitarian razors. As far as the edge goes, I've heard mixed stories.
Only way to know how the edge is will be to shave with it or have someone to shave with it and report to you. I've done this second option for quite a few people, some edges were fine, some were not and I corrected this for them so that they had a true shave ready razor.hasstar likes this.Southeastern Oklahoma/Northeastern Texas helper.

I didn't know SRD dealt in Hart I thought Classic was sole distributer.

Did not know SRD testifies to razors they do not sell as being shave ready????? But hey, I don't get out much. I will say Hart has a following. I have just yet to see anything from them I like.
I would say the proof is in the pudding as the saying goes. Try it, if it feels buttery smooth and shaves off the hair, it is shave ready. If it pulls and brings tears to your eyes, then it needs a honing!German blade snob!

Yea it does make a difference who you got it from, maybe they already dulled the blade, maybe they lied to you, so yea it does, as for their blades straight from the maker , mouth or miss, but I didn't know SRD sold them ,,, tc

My guess is the OP meant to type SRP ? I could be wrong though, I was wrong once before.
