: Your idea about buying off BST is not a bad one; except if somebody's selling theirs, it must be they don't think it's such a great razor. It could be they need the money or other reasons, but it seems paradoxical they would sell off the world's best shaver.
that's not entirely true, i need to free up some cashe for some recent and future purchases and my remaining 3 non-straights are on the very short list to be chopped ASAP. what 3? Vintage slant, Streamline, and no-issue Cobra. not because i don't love the shave from them. it's just been quite a while since i really wanted to use them. i only really use the cobra when i travel "locally" otherwise it's a bic metal.
