Thread: Where have all the razors gone?

I'm surpassing curious about the stock of edged shaving tools. If you look at the webpages of our suppliers: Vintage, Classic, SRD, you see that essentially there are no 6/8 or 7/8 razors available - the Shaving Shop seems to be the exception: John Crowley seems to have a good stock of the larger sizes. I assume that DOVO and Thiers Issard continue to make razors of all sizes, but for the most part only 5/8 razors seem to be available. What's happening with the production of larger sizes? Are they being snapped up so quickly by the European market that none make it here to the US? Or is the unanticipated US demand so great that delivery schedules may never be realistically filled?

What's the word on the street about the rumored Spyderco entry into the straight razor market?

Questions abound
