November 2016 acquisitions

To go with the new straight you were talking about?

I used it last night and it performed OK but nothing spectacular. I did use it with a R41 head for last night's shave, so maybe not the ideal test as I'm having issues with it at the moment. I was expecting it to be more slick TBH. It's nowhere near as slick as D.R. Harris for instance. I'll definitely be using D.R. Harris for my first Straight shave.

Fingers crossed my SR will be with me this time next week.
 
I have a new straight that's just having the finishing touches completed.Both happy guys eh.
 
Do you have them plated in gold or nickel? Is the shave similar to a NEW?
