In the beginning I was skeptical, especially after I got the wrong razor when my order arrived. But the excellent customer service from Laura shined as always! I can tell you this, this razor is beautiful! I love the Spanish point and the multi colored scales with acrylic and wood! It does come “shave ready” but I would recommend and finish gone to better the edge. My favorite originally was the Solomon, the moved the the King Arthur, another beautiful razor. But now I’m absolutely in love with the Griflet! Thank you Naked Armor for producing quality and beauty at an affordable cost!
