What do you have to do to get a Weber with the bull dog handle? I'v been looking at their site since June and Amazon always says, out of stock. Am I missing something? I've tried contacting them. Joined twitter for the tweets, no luck....

I'm in the same boat. I have no idea what to do. I just check their site. Obviously a lot less often for me now than when I first decided to "buy" one. Who knows, maybe the excitement will just wear off, or I'll forget about it after enough time passes. I wish they would check sites like this and reply to us....
Good luck,
Geoff

Gentlemen:
The Weber is a superb razor, and quite popular. From what I understand, both models are produced in small numbers. I have had both the ARC and the DLC — and, to my regret, sold both. Again from what I understand, a new supply is due in the next couple weeks.
Superb razor and you sold it?Quote:

No, it was an emergency of sorts and I needed the money. Otherwise I would not have sold them — I had to sell a few other things. The Weber shave heads were matched with the Edwin Jagger Plaza handles. It was a gorgeous set. The razors went to good people, though, and I know they continue to enjoy them. One razor stayed in the U.S. and the other went to Turkey.Quote:

Hope it's soon cause I have permission to purchase by SWMBO. I did read that the ARC head was still going to be available, but it's strange that its not on the weber website.
The best way to get a Weber is to follow there Twitter thread. When a new batch are ready for sale you'll get a tweet. Then get to a computer and buy one quick. That's how I got mine.
O.T but some of the greatest were Robt.Smiths Bull mastiffs,great handle craftmanship.
Alas he has gone to the graet beyound:(
If you get a tweet and they are in stock, shoot me a message, (of course after you've gotten yours). I don't do Twitter, but want one bad!!!!!

Weber has new razors for sale. Get them while you can.
Gentlemen:
I ordered mine late last night and am looking forward to welcoming it to the shave den. The Weber never fails me. Good stuff.
Just ordered mine!Thanks for the heads up!! Been waiting a longggggg time
Ordered one myself today, excited to try it out :)
I wonder what happened to the ARC, DLC finishes? When I ordered I noticed it said "polished head" no option for ARC or DLC...
That's precisely why I didn't order one today. I've been waiting for the DLC head......
I wan't the ARC, oh well......I'm sure the polished will be just as good.
Only a polished head is available. It doesn't seem Weber will go back to producing the ARC or DLC heads any time soon. The also have 3 different polished handles to go along with the head.Quote:

What blade are guys using in your Weber? The ones supplied? That's what I usually use daily anyway. Just wondering if anyone found a better combo.....
Got mine but I am holding off shaving with it because I am using the long weekend to practice my straight razor while I can put >45 minutes for it.
I am very impressed with it. I got the classic handle and it is superb. I also own a Tradere SB and while the finish there is clearly better, I find that the classic handle just makes more sense. I mounted the Tradere head on the Weber handle and first off, it looks better but more importantly, it feels better in my hand. I will most likely give it its maiden voyage on Monday, unless I will be able to complete a straight razor shave in ~15 minutes by then.
