    Happy Birthday! Nice present. Can you tell me when you ordered it? The reason I ask is because I ordered the 15/16 last week & he wrote me telling me it is an 8-10 week wait but that he usually gets them out quicker than that.

    I ordered via a third party who stock 4 examples of his work. Traditionalshaving.co.uk. Took 2 days to arrive from them. My particular one is now showing as out of stock so I assume they stock one of each and reorder once sold.

    Oh, I see. I went to that website & saw that! I ordered mine from Michael Waterhouse himself from here. He's a member on here.

    First shave just now and.....wow! Keep in mind I'm new to straight shaving but I've been getting very good results with my Kropp. This razor however is something else. The edge on it is sublime. Sharp, smooth and so very comfortable in the hand. Either I had an epiphany during my shave or it was the razor but I've just had my best shave so far.

    Beautiful razor, I was given one of Michael's razors by Michael to try out and give him some feedback and they are quality beautifully made, I liked it so much I'm waiting on one myself, when It arrives I'll post a few photo's with a few spec's.
