Thanks for the advice.
I am sensing from the replies that I didn't make a very good choice with this razor ...
I also got Dovo Russian Type XL Cowhide Hanging Razor Strop for $70 .
I might be getting "collecting" bug ...
Last night I purchased Dove Bismark 7/8 ( White Bone for under $200) and Wacker "Antik" ( $329)...
Just couldn't help myself

well i'm not sure about that razor... the brand is an old one and the vintage c-mons were wonderful, i have not heard or seen a review on the new ones... and yes it seems like you have the RAD going well.

the guys form nothern nj & nyc are trying to get a meet up going on here is the link: http://straightrazorpalace.com/get-t...nj-area-2.html

We have small Russian speaking community on Britva.ru where post USSR country's razor users gathering. I think there is hundred or 2 of active users in our country's. Its difficult to say because many of straight users not active on the forum and I don't know if they still use straights or have abandoned this hobby.*

In Ukraine personally I know maybe 10 straight users from different city's

Thanks for the info SYSLIGHT ... greatly appreciated !

btw ... in case someone else from NYC needs it :

RAD ?! LOL .... I'll try to take it easy ...

Sergey, I spoke from ignorance about the B&B razor you first purchased.

Read this Brands of Straight Razors to avoid - Straight Razor Place Wiki

Thanks jaswarb ... Actually it is C'MON Cadillac and not B&B...

I was not planning on making any more purchases but ... piked up Vintage Straight Razor Filarmonica Doble Temple No.13 7-8 Black scales NOS on EBAY this morning for $320. Seemed like a really good deal .. just couldn't resist ... RAD
