My guess is you got that from c...f...m on eBay. That was unusual enough and pristine enough that I had a serious case of the wants. I finally kicked my gearshift back into neutral or you'd have had some serious competition....of course not knowing you were from SRP!!
Enjoy it in good health!!
Best Regards,

That was the one. I was unable to exercise the self control that you expressed this time around. Kudos to you! Although, it is a fun little piece.
It is much smaller then I thought it would be. I don't know what I was expecting, but it is very similar in size to some of the vintage DE's I have seen. I haven't tried shaving with it yet. I recently acquired a Suehiro 20k, and for some reason (haha) I can't stop shaving with the straights that I have finished on that hone. I did bring this little gem up to the SG 20k as well, but I am really enjoying the straights right now. I will definitely post again when I do shave with this hybrid, and report the experience. Who knows, if I like it enough, it may replace my DE altogether (no more buying blades?), but I doubt it.
Take care,
Jeremy

Jeremy,
Yeah, it wasn't so much self control, more wallet control. I just love old contraptions and special items. I look forward to hearing what you think after you try it.
SG 20k....great hone!!

I just sealed the deal on a NOS Everite, just five minutes ago. I got it at so ridiculous a price I will not mention it. Way below the $159.00 one I saw listed earlier. I will answer PM's for anyone curious enough to want to torture themselves with a bargain someone else got. Believe me, this doesn't happen to me but once a decade.
