Thread: SRD shave ready

I wouldn't worry about getting one that isn't ready to go and expertly honed.

Even if a "clunker" did slip out, Lynn and Don are tops to work with. I'm betting you would not have an issue working it out if you managed to be the 1 in a million that got a blade that managed to slip past their QC.

Thanks guys!!! I am new to the straight razor. That's why i asked the question. I have read that not all razors that say there shave ready, are shave ready.
I will shaving on the road. That is why i need a razor that is ready to go. I have not purchased and stone as of yet.
I did not know that people that own or work for SRD are contributers to this site. I hope my question did not come across as a negative one.
