Thread: Can we talk about this TI?

I've got a silver wing as well as one other of the newer TIs with the new steel and they are great. You made out like a bandit Chris.

It may be legal ivory in France but if they ship these razors to Italy they are violating the international ban on ivory trade!

TI as I understand it, went through several iterations of harder steel razors and grinds before they settled on the new ones. These for their lower end hone up and shave well.

Nice!

Uhm, France and Italy are both in EU. Do you know whether it is legal or illegal to trade legal ivory between EU member states?
After all the two German states are now one and the Czech and Slovak republic used to be a single country...
It would be nice to have authoritative answers instead of speculations.

I like the fact that since I'm part Eskimo I can have raw ivory
