Me and you, Bruv!
Attachment 305254
I love fixed handle razors. I am finding that I enjoy using them more than any other razors I have. The last couple shaves I have even used traditional kamisoris and I even like them more. The only drawback is that the blade is so short that I have to clear them of lather more often.

Huge shout out to Outback fir being a customs go between.

My appreciation will be creatively expressed buddy,.

One of the things I love best about SRP is Members Helping Members! :tu
Good job Outback! :bow
Well I got his coming. I am new to straight razors and have no experience with Boker, only my TI, but have read good things. And it looks so damned pretty! It was on sale with a 25% discount! I tell myself (and the missus) it's an early 50th birthday present :)
It's a Boker 5/8 Damascus, horn scales (not sure which horn but I love how it looks)

What brand did you go with for contact wheels?
No name from ali express. Biggest wheel is 6”. Worth the risk considering the price. Gave them all a quick spin and they are concentric and don’t wobble at all, I guess I won’t really know until I get everything up and running. Shipping was unbelievable, 6 days from Hong Kong and free shipping.
