March 2018 Acquisitions

Hi @Dansco

Rhodium replate, from Chris at BackRoadsGold on Etsy.

I was thinking about sending the Slim Adjustable that I have to one of the refinishers. A funky colour combo was on the cards, but @windows95 reported a change in face feel with one he had done, so I scratched that plan.

It just worked out far better to get a razor supplied by BRG, as a complete package, ratehr tahn sending mine.

I sent a query on the Sat evening, 6pm UK time, and got an almost instant response to say he wasn't yet offering to rhodium plate customers razors, just doing "stock" ones first. It was a lucky coincidence that exactly the date code I wanted was already on his workbench for rhodium plating that day. Chris said he'd send over some pics when he was done.By 11:30pm that evening I had pics, said I was having it, invoiced and paid!!

And all for quite a lot less than a replate job at Razor Emporium, which was another option, but see the refinish thread.

Cheers, John
