Thread: Maestro-Group Buy

For me it's all dependend on price. I'd love one. I'm just pretty sure that no matter the price I won't be able to afford it. Maybe in 10 years or so....or if I get the time to save up for a year.

As for size....IF I'd want one I'd want an 8/8, simply because I already own : 5/8, 6/8 (twice) and 7/8. I'm not interested in 4/8 and I don't really need any duplicates.

Is this a new thread ? .. sorry I'm confused after the Db failure .. I'd be interested also ( price depending as well .. ) 8/8 sounds neat .. I don't have one of those yet

I'm also interested. I'm pretty open minded about spec:

• 6/8 or 7/8
• ATS34, Silvano Damascus, or Pinin regrind (would also be interested in Silvano Damascus but am guessing there may not be enough for demand)
• don't mind the grind
• don't mind the shape
• scales in a patterned wood, e.g. burl.

Looking forward to seeing how this takes shape.

Cheers

It looks like everyone has their own idea of what razor they would like from the Maestro. However, it usually helps with offers at no profit at all if one or a few models can be "mass" produced to keep manufacturing costs low.

Just an observation. I think this is a great offer by the Maestro (and Lynn who does put an effort into it as well).

However,

After the great response to our recent dilema, I think I need to contact the Maestro to see about a nice group buy for us. How bout you guys give me some ideas for what would be nice for a group deal, like ATS 34 or Damascus along with maybe a choice of handle and we'll see what we can agree on and then what we can get the Maestro to do.

The cost will be based on what you guys want and what the Maestro will charge with no profit at all.

Thanks,

Kees is right of course.
Though if one thing is obvious: most people seem to want spanish point.

Im in and hang the overdraft!

+1 on something simple.

I would prefer a 6/8 or 7/8 but no bigger....

I did like those Mammoth tusk/bone scales that I think ?Taz? was parading around making me feel jealous

They where simple, but darn good looking....

But what the hell.... its a Maestro.... its gonna be good.

You are correct... i mean a nice simple Maestro is a joy to behold and use and by keeping it simple more people would be able to enjoy the ownership...

i recant my previous choice... ats34, french point with either simple horn scales or a nice burl wood... but i still want an inscription commemorating the event!

I'm also in depending on the price.

I know I can not afford it, but I will play along.

7/8, ATS 34, Full Hollow with a smile, Spanish Point, Olive Wood Burl

+1 on the ATS 34.
6/8 or 8/8, French or Spanish really doesn't matter, as long as we don't break the bank. Wooden scales, but I also want something that will commemorate the event, and the maker. Lets face it. we all wan a Maestro Razor in our stable. The more simple we keep it, the more people can afford it.

My 1/2 cents worth.
