    Default T/T & L/C

    T/T wire transfer is what I used. Letter of Credit is what the big deals must be done with.

    deferred payment letter of credit (L/C) definition

    What is a T/T payment? What is L/C? - Yahoo! Answers

    all the talk about the amount of work it takes to get these razors into shape finally got to me. I ordered a 777 from mr.parko just a couple minutes ago. Think I'll give it a go on that one and see how I do before buying the 200.

    Damn all you enablers!

    All three that I have are 13/16ths wide,I'm guessing their all about that size from spine to edge.

    Something that should be apparent from pictures of these razors is that they have a smile. So you will need to break out your rolling X honing strokes. Just to brush up your technique look Rolling X stroke - Straight Razor Place Wiki and http://straightrazorpalace.com/video...eo-series.html

    Default A note on new razors

    Thanks Boris for testing your razor. I wondered if Nancy was translating my question correctly.

    With all the talk of honing GD's I want to tell you about new razors. I have just received a NOS Henckles the instructions say you do not have to strop it the first time. Do not believe them. I louped the razor and there is noticeable feather with two small spurs near the heal. In the past I received a NOS Boker with a slight hesitation step in the grind. There was another new razor that I can't remember the exact problem.

    So if your $15 dollar Gold Dollar needs honing it is in good company.--Jay

    Can you explain this a bit more? How does that show that it is stainless?
