I have a 8/8 Revisor, the Mungstener Brucke, and that is one great shaver. It came shave ready and without flaws of any kind

Thanked: 39I have ordered from Revisor three times. It's easier and safer than you think.
You tell him what you want and where you live. He sends you the total bill. You go on Paypal and post a payment to the Revisor email address. He sends you your razor.
Each time I ordered, it took about ten days for it to get to me. My orders arrived by USPS, with signature confirmation. That part can be a PITA because you have to be there to sign for it, but you don't know exactly when it will arrive. However, it is safer because they won't just leave it on your doorstep. Each time, I've had to go to the post office the next day to pick up my razor (you can also leave a note with the postman to reschedule the delivery), but at least I didn't have to worry about someone stealing it off the porch.
Hope that helps.
FYI, Revisors don't always come shave ready. The bevel will be set, but it might need a bit of additional sharpening to finish it (one of my three Revisors was shave ready). Once it's set, though, the shave is outstanding.

I've only honed one of the Friedrich Schmidt Revisor's & it got 2 thumbs up from me. I'd own one in a heartbeat.

Last year I ordered a 8/8" revisor, you don't have to worry about their thrust wordiness, done business with them a number of times. I did have a problem with my 8/8" when it arrived, it was slightly warped. I contacted a few others and let them see the razor, they agreed that there was definitely a warp to it. So I asked Revisor and they let me send the razor back, checked it, honed it again and test shaved it, there was nothing wrong with it they said. But since I was not happy with the razor they just give me a refund, no questions asked. If that's not great service! That's the only time I was not completely happy with something I ordered from them, have never heard from others that I personally know that ordered from them that where unhappy. I'm sure the razor would have shaved great but when spending this kind of money one likes to be completely satisfied.
