    It looks like decent fit and finish on that set of drawers.

    I'm very pleased. This thing is actually well made for the price. I think it will hold up.

    my new debit card showed up today and printed on the form it says, and I quote, " Let's go shopping!"
    and so I did.
    a. Red Latigo strop from Fendriham ( I don't think I spelled it right )
    b. Cella Balsamo Dopobarba 3 oz off the bay ( cheapest place with shipping )
    c. Valobra menthol soap block from a bloak in 'ol jolly

    ahhhhh, feeding the addiction- stepping away from the computer now..
    have a wonderful Sunday everyone

    Putting this together turned out to be a little bit of a RAD killer. I didn't realize how many nice razors I already have until I was putting them in the drawers. I also have enough project razors to last me a long time. I actually killed my watch list and saved searches today. Let's just call it NoBay17[emoji12]
    I'm going to like this case and thank those of you that shared it here.

    Really !

    Why don't you just put some wheels on the dang thing & let it follow you around town. Leave the empty drawers open(all 2 of them) and let the razors JUMP IN !!! Pied Piper of Stray Razors !! Name:  Grandpa_Angry.gif

    Nice bit of shopping.

    I'm glad that you had a pleasant time with your new Debit Card.

    Yesterday I called and told my bank that my current debit card was starting to crack and I'd need a new one so they ordered one for me and said it would be here in 4-5 days.

    Two hours later I went to the grocery store and picked up $6 worth of food. My card wouldn't work. I'd spent 36+ years in retail grocery so I told the checker to call customer service and transfer the transaction to the service booth.

    After 15 minutes of trying everything that the clerk and I could think of it dawned on me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The F'ing Bank had canceled my current card!!

    I had the groceries put aside and drove the short distance home and called the bank.

    When the young lady said that it was 'current policy' to cancel a card when a new one was ordered. I went Ballistic! I told the clerk that this 'minor' fact hadn't been policy in the past and that I was Never Told Of This Change!

    It went downhill from there.

    I don't think that they like me anymore!!! However my card was re-activated and wont' be deactivated UNTIL I TELL THEM TO DEACTIVATE IT!!!!!!

    Happy Shopping!

    Finally pulled the trigger on the Japanese natural stones. I bought an Ozuku asagi 3lb 10 oz. 212 x 78 x 28 (of course not totally uniform. But looks to be a great stone shape wise). I looked around for a long time and compared vendors.
    i went with a stone from Takeshi of Aframestokyo whose opinion i respect. He test honed a razor on the stone twice and was able to give me his positive view on it as a great stone for razors . Im expecting it in about 10 days.

    Had that happen whilst living in Thailand & credit union in AZ. Took 4 months to sort it. Glad you got it sorted.

    Scored a Paladin brush before they pretty much sold out in minutes. Went with an ivory Chief that matches my other brushes and has a 28mm knot / 52mm loft. Guessing it'll be here early next week...haven't had any luck with adding one of Ken's brushes to my den until today.
