Its a Lovely Blade..Scales are on the Cheap but there is something Cheeky about them that I actually like..He does the 66 Model for less than 20 Quid Posted..The 208 was £25.50 Posted..Billy also provides a follow up Honing Service on these..He was informing me yesterday that he doesn't reckon they are Stainless..He reckons they are a Very Hard Carbon Steel & Very Good Steel at That..That sounds bang-on, Billy. Less than £20 and nicely prepped too!

I never asked him..He is very approachable though..He has worked on that blade from Top to Bottom & Reckons it shouldn't need any further work for a long time if stropped correctly & refreshed every now & again with Chromium Oxide..He is getting Stainless Dovo Razors sent to him from the Box that aint anywhere near Shave Ready..In his Own Words.."They look Pretty" but he reckons the Dollar is Better Steel..Sounds like a proper bargain and a decent chap too. If he can prep them from scratch to a high standard (which it appears he can) for £20-£25 delivered, you're getting the razor virtually for free!
Any idea how much he charges for his follow-up honing?
I got my NOS Shave Ready Crop from these Guys just recently..These are a Darn Good Price & Look Factory New..You cant Go wrong..I don't know why they are still sitting here..Its a No Brainer to Me..BTW, his nickname's "Stumpy", (and not just because of his thumbs!)
