As some of you may know, they had been posting their specials on deals.woot.com recently, and I know a decent amount of people bought, myself included.
I had ordered this blade:
http://www.vintagestraightrazor.com...rbon-Steel-Straight-Razor-w-Etched-Spine.html
Any ideas on shaving quality? I shaved for the first time this morning (stropped, creamed up, etc) and had a decently rough shave, although I'm not attributing that to the blade (newbie with a razor...seems like the majority of initial shaves are a bit rough). The site claims that the razor is made by GB Buckington and Sons, but I can't find anything about them online. Another rather odd tidbit is that they claimed that the logo on the razor for that company was a sticker that could be removed...but my razor didn't even have a sticker on it. I noticed in the FAQs it was said that any razor without some sort of marking for manufacturer is bad news, and despite the fact that this blade was supposed to have one, it appears that it does not.
Any tips on where to go from here?
