The only way to settle all this madness is to have a weigh-off. Person with the heaviest razor collection wins!
BTW your lucky this time Cheetah - were that Hargreaves not doing its best wave impersonation I woulda been all over it

Im not worried. My mentor Sharpton or Wullie will take care of it for me. That is not a wave. It tis but a simple scratch. Originally Posted by EisenFaust

Hopefully sooner than later. I sent an email with pics to my favorite restorer onthis site and he never got back to me. So i have to reach out to other restorers and figure out my next move. Luckily my facial hair takes forever to grow. So no worries there. I have to say that i do get discouraged with the wait time to get blades back though but what can you do. I can sand to my hearts content but i dont have any fjnishing equipment so back to square one i go. Originally Posted by maddafinga
