There are many users of Hone type 15s on this forum and they come from Europe not the USA.Funny look. Reminds me of Futur. However, even if i wanted it, i 've never seen it here. Ordering 80+EUR razor from USA and having to deal also with the local customs and posts? No, thank you. I already have 1 russian package with blades and 1 chinese with Yaqis in a limbo. One hasn't updated the tracking since Nov16 and the other since Nov19. I am burned out. I think i am done with these international orders for good. I wanted a 2nd Yaqi best badger as spare. Right now i am so sick of the mail adventures, that i 'd rather buy a 2nd EJ pure badger from Amazon at the same price. Maybe i will change my mind after some months...
@Obelix what brand is the razor? If MÜHLE then email them, thats what I did when one of mine started to crumble and they sent me a brand new one from Germany express next day delivery with lots of apologies... They are very honourable

Hone. Seygus.The problem is that the only brass 3 piece razor that i am aware of, is Fatip, which though
I'm sorry , I was just making you aware of a brass three peice mild razor that you was not aware of...... My mistake.Well, never seen them in a shop here... and at this point, i think it's a bit too late for further experiments. I am at 7 razors plus 1 Baili that i keep as travel only. I think it's too late to go back to trying new ones.
Bakelite. I still claim that the Merkur 45 is the best DE I own.Bakelite is where it's at, as Peter Kay would say... “It's the future!â€
Hone. Seygus.
Unfortunately I don't own a brass Hone (just the 15A), but my brass Seygus is my most used DE this year.
Hone and Seygus are also small manufactures worth supporting...
It will come. A razor that you could drop all day long!Bakelite. I still claim that the Merkur 45 is the best DE I own.
The "future", however, is carbon fibre. Mark my words.
I tried to convince Hone to make one, but they said they didn't know where to start
Edit: Correction: The future is concrete.

I had a lengthy conversation with a state-of-the-art-concrete material scientist and modern concrete is effing amazing. Weighs well less than stainless steel.. tolerances are as good as you want them to be and it looks cool... unbreakable... cheap... the perfect material...It will come. A razor that you could drop all day long!P.
Bakelite comes in cream, brown, black and beauty is in the eye of the beholder, they actually shave very well.No, it wasn't your mistake. It was me not expressing my thoughts correctly. I am glad i now know that the Fatip isn't the only one. But i come to know of it too late.
Also, bakelites, i think are some like white strange razors? That seem like jade? I 've seen one of those in a local shop, but just seemed weird and ugly.

I want oneI had a lengthy conversation with a state-of-the-art-concrete material scientist and modern concrete is effing amazing. Weighs well less than stainless steel.. tolerances are as good as you want them to be and it looks cool... unbreakable... cheap... the perfect material...
Carbon fibre is heavier than bakelite...Carbon fiber sounds really cool idea! Only problem is that it would make the razor head a bit too light? Of course there are razors that aren't head heavy, so i guess this isn't an absolute obstacle.
You can't. I keep my material scientist for myselfI want oneP.
