I'll be there
I'm going to give this a go. I've got a Fatip Grande that I haven't used in yonks, and a New Improved that I picked up 5 or 6 years ago but have never used. To be honest if I'm true to form I'll load a blade in the Fatip, ride it for 2 weeks, change it, and the next thing I know it'll be November and the New Improved will still be in a drawer somewhere.
I've already dug it out of the drawer. Its in great condition.Ahhhh, use the New Improved first!! You owe it to OCtober, and to your shave brothers who truly suffer from the heartbreak of RAD. If you dislike the New Improved, its OK to swap razors mid-shave.

Thanks I sent an email right after I sent that post.Absolutely and a fine gentlemen with exceptional service.
All the vintage replated?
The Tech fat handle I sent with it will actually be used on another razor. I have a repro ball end handle for the NEW LC.Thanks I sent an email right after I sent that post.
Since this is the OCtober thread I'll only post the NEW he did for me back in 2015 in nickel
(But he's done many razors for me, got an extra of every of my favorites at the time and he replated them)

She had some issues with the base metal and he still made it turn out far beyond my wildest dreams.
