Default www.theWellHonedRazor.com

open for business...
It's pretty small, I'll be adding some scale materials and custom handles as I make them up.
And I have a small number of shave ready Wapis (7) available for immediate purchase.
I'm expecting more, but I can't count my Wapis before they arrive...

I also have a small links and tutorial section that I will be building on...
Take a look and let me know what you guys think...

One of these days in your travels, a guy is going to show you a brand-new deck of cards on which the seal is not yet broken. Then this guy is going to offer to bet you that he can make the jack of spades jump out of this brand-new deck of cards and squirt cider in your ear. But, son, do not accept this bet, because as sure as you stand there, you're going to wind up with an ear full of cider.

Thank you, It's my first time designing a web page, (with some help)
and I'm pretty limited at the moment, but as I get more items I'll make them available.
If you guys have any suggestions I'm glad to hear them...

Thanks Mike....either way will be OK with me. I'd love to own a Livi, but I've committed to the B&B LeGrelot as well. If someone drops out then I guess it was meant to happen...lol...I like your site BTW - very nicely done! I've got you bookmarked and will keep an eye on how things go!

I can handle them... They do take a bit longer, but they are also a pleasure to test shave...

I'm working on getting some scales made and available, but I've had family issues that are causing a delay on that front...
as soon as I can get a few sets made up I'll make them available.

When I get time to start making up some of these, what are you guys interested in?

fully finished and predrilled, ?
unfinished, undrilled, ?
finished with oil, and undrilled ?

I've never tried drilling a handle that was finished with CA, but I don't think it would work very well...

Thanks, I'm working on getting some scales up for sale, and some nice silver tip brushes.
Once my family life calms down a little I hope to retail some Dovo or TI razors as well... although I'm trying not to compete too much with the other retailers, so I'll have to work on adding some variety to what's already available.

I need to clear up some funds for a new belt sander, so I'm running a SRP member special for one week.
between now and Friday the 28th or until my supply runs out, enter coupon code SRPmember during checkout to get 10% off on Wapis.
Once these are gone I'm not sure if I can get more, so this might be your last chance.
