    As I had heard great things about these razors, I ordered one myself. Still eagerly awaiting delivery!

    These are great shavers and beautiful to the eye.

    I picked up a stainless 6/8 w/ olive wood scales sometime back. One of the reviews reported difficulty in honing, but I must have gotten lucky. This shaves remarkably well and was a bargain to boot.

    Back on topic - Always nice to see another manufacturer in the ring, especially at SRD.

    Gentlemen, I had a 6/8 already, in plastic scales, which are substantial, but went ahead and ordered a 5/8, too. I like 5/8 razors. As for honing the Ralf Aust, I have found no problem at all. My 6/8 took a sweet edge and shaves beautifully. I hope the manufacturer succeeds with these razors, for they are quality, and quite handsome, too. The noble Lynn has a good eye for fine razors. Good show, Lynn.

    I've looked at the Aust razors for awhile and kept putting off getting one. Glad I did. Ordered a 6/8 RP w/faux ivory from SRD this morning.

    Those were the original ones a while back. The new ones are different animal.
