    Default I may have cured my RAD!

    So, I have to say that as of yet I'm waiting for these to arrive, and yes I bought them based on these pictures only and yes I paid far, far too much for them... But, I'm more excited about the impending arrival of these fellows than I have been for a long time...

    With it being a complete set, I can't see wanting to add anything for my rotation for a long time, unless of course they turn out to be crap or damaged. :P

    They're by A.J. Jordan, ''Old Faithful'' though that's more of something they put on a lot of razors as opposed to a model. I know they aren't as fancy as most 7 day sets, and yes that is just black celluloid, I'm pretty sure, and yes they lack the fancy engravings or gold wash we're used to seeing on sets... But it's a seven day set, and mine! What can I say, I'm excited.

    Whattaya think?

    Very nice set ! Enjoy them.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Just means that you have now begun the SDSAD (seven day set aquisition disorder), a single addition just won't cut it for you anymore!



    Nice looking set BTW.....

    agreed, you may have just worsened your situation. It's really hard to kill an addiction by getting more of what you are addicted to...

    I too think I can quit my RAD with one last great purchase because unlike others I'm not addicted. I can give up when ever I want to. I just don't feel like giving up my RAD at the moment.

    You are done for my friend! if I only had the money for every 7,4, or 2 day set I got believing I wasn't going to buy any more razors I would have enough money to buy that Japanese natural hone that will cure my HAD!

    OH THAT'S GOOD...
    I always feel like I can control it immediately after a great purchase,but it comes right back in a short time.........
