    I have a few. Livis, Zowadas and Chandlers, but no RW....yet. I love them all and don't really see any downside to the customs other than the price. Even so, I think they are a good value for what you receive.

    Congratulations on your Williams. Enjoy using them.

    Where are you located in Ohio?

    Congrats on getting a matching pair from Robert. My Williams is the most well balanced shaver I've got, and Robert is a great guy to deal with.

    Excuse my ignorance, but how do you guys start up a conversation when it comes to ordering a custom?

    I know guys like Max have ads in the classifieds, but what about the rest?

    I'm surprised that a lot of us got the
    same idea at the same time, that is
    to order a Robert Williams at the same
    time. What we have to do now is, show
    and tell, when we get them.

    I've been shaving with a Bismarck 7/8
    spanish point for years, time for an up
    grade. I only have two razors, my
    Robert Williams razors will replace them
    both. Ditto on Robert Williams to be easy
    to deal with. He's a great guy!

    Bismarck 7/8 Spanish point, huh? Dovo origen? Is the razor in question promised to someone?

    It's promised to a family member. Thanks for asking.

    If I go to a razor maker and get them to combine the blade I want with the handle I want, is that a custom? They already make the handle and the blade, just not together.

    It would be like going to Dovo and getting them to put the Renaissance blade on the Desert Ironwood.
