Thread: Announcing The SRP Logo Limited Edition Straight Razor

Now I've never owned a custom razor, and I'm pretty new at this whole thing... but what keeps the razor from coming out the other end of the scales on something like this? The spine width? A 'Stopper'? a hidden pin?...

I have a plain Dovo with the black plastic handle and there is a plastic 'stopper' in the scales to keep the blade from closing too far and coming out the other side of the scales... but I haven't seen any photos of the inside of the scales of these custom razors..

Thanks

Spine width. Even on three pin razors the width of the spine will limit the travel through the scales .

Well . . . not always. I own this beautiful Wade & Butcher wedge that was restored and rescaled by a skilled member of SRP. The material used for the scales is rather flexible so that if you're not careful, what you see in the image below will happen (and yes -- I learned this lesson the hard way).

Hey Morty looks like you should build an extension like they do on garages with big cars.

#109 arrived in Canada today. Order placed on December 28th. Looking forward to shaving with it tomorrow.
