Quite disturbing but I'm sure you will be, be back that is!

Colonial says they hope to have another batch ready 'later next month'.

Micheal

p.s. and a rumor (which I've just made up) indicates that the new batch is going to be much better than the ones that just sold out.

I heard that rumour (which you just made up) too Micheal.

Mine's just arrived. Not bad for a US purchase at 1400 BST on Sunday, 15th October to delivery by the postman at 1130 BST on Friday, 20th October, to my house in East Anglia.

It's rather a nice razor, as well, and looks good in the razor rack with my brass and aluminium Generals.

Mine arrived this morning. At six days, that was a few days quicker delivery than my Brass General.
At 120.4g it's about 8g lighter than the brass with a similar balance point.
As I love the brass version, I know the SS will be a pleasure to shave with.

My General has arrived too,first impressions are good.
Still prefer the handle shape of the aluminium though .
Bring on my next shave !!!

Blademonkey · Saturday October 21, 2017

Mine too! Fantastic service. It will shave like a dream just like the Brass one

What were they thinking when they designed that handle?
Note to Colonial razors
Next time, make a batch in stainless steel using the aluminium style handle.

nick_s · Sunday October 22, 2017

Ooh, I do like the new handle with the knurling. I might stick some funds toward one when another batch is available.

@Electrif - I don't suppose you know the weight of the SS version at all? I loved the weight of the brass version, it would be superb if the SS was similar.

Kypros Christodoulides · Sunday October 22, 2017

The new handle is perfection, I wish all the others had it.

The SS weighs 120.4g, only 8.5g lighter than the Brass. The balance point is virtually the same.
