Many thanks to Joe Chandler and Straight Razor Designs!
Hey guys!
You may remember a very sad story that posted a while ago. My gorgeous razor was lost in the mail, and I was pretty upset about it. Luckily, however, the package was insured, so I did not incur any financial loss from the situation. So, Don called me up and asked me what I wanted to do, and when I said I was most distraught about losing the razor, he offered to contact Joe Chandler and ask him to make another.
So... he did!
After having the razor lost in the mail, SRD commissioned an exact replica of the razor for no additional charge. Well, look what arrived in the mail today...
A HUGE thank you to Lynn, Don, anyone else at Straight Razor Designs, and to Joe Chandler!

Very nice! The double finger notches are excellent. I have an old Greaves with a similar shape. Strange when stropping but great grip when shaving.

CF scale huh? I wonder what they'll think of next. Aluminum or fiberglass would be next in line.
Nice razor mate.
