    I'm waiting on a fatboy case I won. Lol I got con'd on the postage .. But the case is only $5. I'm paying more in postage than what I paid for the case.

    Now if that darn fatboy my buddy got me would just get here already!!

    I have the 1st Russian sampler up top...it's friggin awesome, the only one I would say to use caution with is the Sputnik. The rest are dandy Andrew. :)

    I ordered a pair of used Naniwa stones in 3k and 5k that have been glued together in a combo stone. Since these stones are more consistent for me to use than my natural stones with slurry, it should help me get the edge I am looking for on my straights. I also ordered three pastes of a proprietary blend from the same shop. He uses them to further refine and polish an edge after final hone. I need to make a paste strop now, but am excited to try these.

    Also ordered another 100 Russian DE blades. Which for the amount of DE shaving I do is about a 20 year supply.

    Rapira Swedish Supersteel DE blades. I finally tried them last week after having some for a year. Good stuff, and it was like $8.50 shipped.

    I almost purchased one of those dorco razors yesterday .. But then I remember how bad the dorco blades were when I got my weishi. So I passed

    It probably shaves like the Wilkinson Sword very mild.

    I was planning on using one as a travel razor possibly. In any case the reviews above are favorable and it seems they take to a shim very well. Im guessing that they will pair perfectly with a nice sharp blade

    I wonder if they're like the Wilkinson Sword and the feather popular the Wilkinson Sword seems best with the Wilkinson Sword blade the feather popular shines with a feather blade. Soooooo maybe you should try the Dorko with a Dorko blade???

    I was in a Chinese supermarket that I visit to collect from. I'm an asset recovery rep and they are my customer. I was just browsing while waiting to get loaded and saw the razors.
    I was in Southern California in a city call San Gabriel .
