Razor oil, multiple strops, diamond paste, soap, Naniwa Super Stones, Maestro Livi Cro ox chalk, modular paddle strop; these are just a few of the proprietary products from SRD I still have from years ago. Always great quality and affordability from the proprietary side of SRD. I reminisce about what a great web and BM store it was. 2008 to 2011 was to me a kind of Golden Age of the wet shaving hobby and SRP was my straight razor fix to enjoy the hobby. SRD had it all from the latest European soaps and creams to at one-point razors from ALL the artisan makers of note. I liked just studying the catalog during the week and early Friday morning placing an order and on Tuesday at the latest there was my box of goods to have fun with. SRD service was excellent, and they did not believe in recycling boxes or packing material, everything was new, fresh and oh so professionally done every time. Though I was no longer in the shaving hobby when SRD closed it was very sad , its like another part of what made the hobby great in its glory days had gone. I still remember SRD and I smile when I do.

I'm not looking at you !
Yes they were. I really enjoyed the information and products you and Don provided. No to mention the customs I bought with you folks only to pass them on. Some I regret. Well Done Lynn.
