Moehal,
Not to rub salt in the wound but I may have snaked the last one. I ordered it through SRD and yu mentioned thy were all out. I was considering going with a feather artistis club straight since I was hving such good luck with my shavette with feather DE blades. If I find that I can't make the jump to a true straight ill let you know if your still in the market
haha theres no salt rubbing at all! i know how hard it is to acquire such great razors for such a price, its quality and beauty merged with a very affordable price for something like that. As i said earlier it makes me happy when people get the straights they desire. I appreciate your offer but Please give it some time before reselling it im sure itll be a great shaver :D hope you make the leap to true straight shaving alot of people have difficulties and if given the time they begin to master it in ways they see best! have fun!
Hal.
You won't be disappointed, TSS has the best customer service that I've ever come across, and your blade will truly be shave ready. Congrats.
im assuming the first part of the post is directed to me, and the congratulations are direct to ny70 :D
well thankyou! i have finally set my mind to TSS! ill place my order by the end of the week and hopefully get it within three weeks later. alot of other sites there but they dont seem to communicate very well. Really like the fact that TSS has such an interactive purchase procedure where we pick our own razor. thankyou again!
Hal.
Jarrod of TSS is a great guy. It's like he's honing all day and taking pictures and answering email questions at the same time...even on weekends.
I have bought a strop and a coticule from him and had lots of questions and he answered right away, gave great advice and threw in something extra in the order. He ships quickly and packs well.
I hope you see your razor soon and enjoy it as much as the anticipation.
Gents,
I just got a 6/8 Bismarck in these (apparently dodgy) red scales and I love it. Got it from Vintage Blades LLC, and they say Lynn hones for them. Whatever, it shaves beautifully and I'll have to look after it carefully to avoid this warping thing. Moehal, best of luck and happy shaving to you in the UAE! Here's a pic of mine:

that is a beauty! somehow the picture makes the red scales look better than what i have seen in quite a lot of other pictures, a LOT better! congrats on the purchase its obviously a great razor and thanks for sharing this beaut :D. i on the other hand have dropped my quest for bismarck, i figured i needed some quality equipment so i did a bunch of shopping at srd andd got a dovo bq which i find quite nice and simple, pretty good for a first razor (that id purchase myself). thanks! i've been having alot of happy shaving really, have a fine razor that i have been using for some time but i cant figure out what brand it is since it doesnt have any stamps or logos. doesnt really matter though its a great shaver! but the curiosity.....
