    Those look stellar, Shane. Too bad they aren't feasible as a full time Blackland offering.

    Maybe you can offer collector's edition sets around the holidays or something.

    Yea I think we'll see some iteration of the fancy box in the future. No plans for that for now so enjoy the one you're getting. :)

    So, with the free overnight shipping that Shane is providing, we should all have our Blackbirds on Tuesday! Wednesday is going to have some stellar SOTD photos. :)

    Now I feel sorry for the TSR crowd :)

    As a member in good standing with the TSR "crowd," I don't understand why you should feel sorry for me.

    I should have been more clear - "for the backers outside of the U.S." (predominantly the UK as TSR is mostly a British site).

    Is that why they talk funny?
    I thought the pass-arounds they did for "UK members" only, were for the "Ultra-Kewl" kids. ;)

    I know you're mostly joking, but quite a few folks in the Midwest and East should actually get their razors on Tuesday.

    Yeah. I was joking, but since I am from the Midwest.... WHOOP!

    I'll be happy to get mine before Friday. At least, as an early-bird adoptee, mine will be in the first batch shipped. Mind you match the woodgrain on my box and stand as best you can, Shane.

    Edit: I know you already said you would, but I imagine you have a lot on your mind at the moment. :)

    I knew you'd ask again. Took this photo a few hours ago when I boxed your order up. Good match I think. Better in person.

    No you don't.

    I bet your just dying to rub it in.

    Oh now that is just lovely. Absolutely lovely. :love029:

    I also appreciate that you didn't show the razor and handles inside. It will add to the "Christmas present to myself" feel when I do unbox them.

    Look like great razors, let us know how they shave.

    Since there will most likely be a few people here receiving their Blackbird in the coming week or so maybe create a 'Group review' thread like we did for the DeFitch razor so all reviews are in one place?

    Is that not what the Blackbird brotherhood thread is for?
