Nope this will be my first one :) I purchased another earlier this year but have yet to receive it :mad: So I decided to go right to a reputable vendor and get one.
I'm quite excited to try it out as I've heard only good things.

Ooh, sorry to hear that. That is why I like to ask people about their prior experiences before going through with a purchase since it never hurts to ask. I had an issue with a shady vendor before on Amazon. (Not on razors, but boxing gloves) Refunded me the money and all that jazz.
Let me know if it's shave ready or not, too. I was curious on that but Takeshi said it is shave ready.
Having an old Henkotsu myself already im undecided whether to go for a Kanenaga [who learned from a ex-Henkotsu guy]
or a new Kanetaka [from a long-established seven generations at 200 years]
or a seriously antique 17th century one ...
An antique I would put it in a case, and like suits I wouldn't be using.
