    Default Straight Razor Shortage?

    I've recently visited several wet shaving suppliers online and have noticed many of the SRs are sold out. Same with shaving brushes and some other shaving accessories. What gives?

    RAD and lots of new interest. The manufacturers are backed up I hear for a couple years. Brushes are in supply. You just have to look around

    Try TheSuperiorShave. Maggardrazors. Revisor-Solingen. shavingshop. SRD. All have some razors in stock

    Thanks for the info, Mike. Right now I have a Dovo Tortoise on order from Classic Shaving and an extra paddle strop. Even some brands of paddle strops were listed as sold out on 3 or 4 websites I visit.

    Ebay has loads of classic razors to fit just about any price range. The classifieds here also has a range of razors. Not brand new but the classics have a charm all their own.

    Shortage of brushes and razors and soaps... No shortage at mine either.

    Shortage of cash and the wife's tolerance for shaving anything. Oh yea!
