    Well this one from Morgan (Silverloaf) will be heading this way. I was bidding to get him a better price, and, well, I ended up with another fine razor from him.
    Trust me I am NOT complaining. This measures at 21/16+ according to the listing. Now the wait begins.........he ships fast so no worries there

    I have bought more than one razor just trying to make sure they did not go too cheap.

    Is a plastic handle with a screw in metal base. If damaged you can just order a replacement base for 15 bucks. Has some good reviews and can only be a step up from the poor one supplied with my machine

    The ones supplied are laughable. BTW what machine you get?

    It arrived today with a Geneva I bought. The etching looks pretty good.


    The hone wear has taken off the top of the riders head, but I still like the design.

    It looks like a prime candidate for a wee scrape with a razor blade and a long ride in the vibrating tumbler. The vibrating tumbler will not remove any healthy metal or harm the etch in any way, but it will take off black and clean it very thoroughly leaving it in top shape for bluing the etch and really making it pop. The Geneva look pretty good too. It looks like zero hone wear on the Geneva.
