    Default Le Grelot 6/8" 1/4 grind

    So, have all the [new] 1/4 grind Le Grelot 6/8" razors all gone? Can't find any at Martin's or Classic Shaving...

    The last Le Grelot 6/8 is on it's way from Classic Shaving to Norway

    Can't tell you how heart-broken I am right now at hearing this.

    I've had one since June (approx) and it's really very good. Thought about getting a second, but...

    I do have the option of getting a 3/4. How do they compare? Obviously they're not a wedge, but do they shave a heavy stubble as close as the 1/4?

    Keep your eyes open in BST. But be quick!

    I happen to have one, but I also have a Dorko 300. It shaves in a very similar way. And it can still be had as NOS. Bit pricey, but very nice.

    Indeed - but I think it is way over-priced, especially if you pay with PayPal using a credit card

    EDIT: Woo-hoo this is my 300th post!!

    Yep, exactly why I was asking - to see if anyone has experienced this in practise.
