    Mine came to little England in about a week I just spoke to Sergejs about yours and due to some technical issues he will have to forge you a new razor. Should be with you in 2-3 months

    Now that was an hilarious, perfect example of the centuries old legendary English humour, you had me for a couple of seconds...bravo!

    Good one, nice way to start the day!

    WOW!

    I got my RigaRazor a week ago, and used it for the first time a few days ago.

    I was floored with the smoothness of the edge! Does anyone know what he uses as a finishing stone? I sent a message to "is..ma" and RigaRazor on ebay, but haven't heard back yet. I have not really understood what people meant by a comfortable edge until now. All my other razors feel harsh by comparison..

    And thanks to all of you guys in this thread. I would never have had the confidence to try out a new production razor of unknown brand, but the thread here gave me the confidence to pull the trigger! I got a real nice 6/8" with G10 scales for $132 shipped!

    I asked Sergej by email when I bought my razor from him.
    He finished my edge on Naniwa Gouken Kagayaki #12 K with one layer of "Scapa" tape on the spine .
    Thickness of the tape is 0,13 mm.

    Yes, I asked him that question before I got my first as well, not only did he tell me exactly what he did, he sent me a roll of that exact brand of tape, little wider and thinner, I only use if for my 3 Riga's.

    He sells carbon steel and tungsten steel razors, the latter at a huge premium. Is tungsten steel worth the money?
