Another from South Oz

[Robbie d]

Hi guys and gals, was put onto this forum tonight by a fellow Adelaidean. I'm a collector, and user of straight razors. I've also made a couple of Kamisori style razors, with a couple more conventional folding straights in the works. I also make strops, and other leather wares.

Welcome - another str8 shooter - and Kamis as well!!! Very nice to have you on board and hope to meet you on Sunday!

I assume you are not yet allowed to post in this thread - but I hope you can see it:

You're right, I can't post there, but yes, I can see it. It was Bald As that put me onto this place. I've met a few Aussies on the other razor forum, but seems to be a lot more locals here.

Welcome Robbie. Post a few posts where you can, like a few posts of others and soon you'll be able to post everywhere.

 

[alfredus]

Great - just as a hint - you have to like a couple of post (click the like button) and be liked and soon you will have privileges to post everywhere...it's just a safety thing, to stop robots.

Welcome @Robbie d

Thanks for the heads up guys, it seems to be the way with all the boards now. The bots, spammers and scammers are getting 'smarter'

Welcome mate. Sounds like you'll be safe from the enabling on here - esp. by @Mark a.k.a. "The Scallywag" - but the $1M is are we safe from you? Hmmm...straights and kamisori.

Be keen to see some pics of your arsenal.

[Robbie d]

well these I didn't make, but are my collection:

This one was on loan, I made the leather case as a repayment for the favour

As was this one

Welcome mate,
Nice to see some of your work.

Keep it coming,
Cheers

 

[eggbert]

Nice looking leather cases. I can see a few sales (/trades if @borked is involved) coming your way soon.

 

[Robbie d]

Thanks, they were both experiments, but i've worked out a better way to do the tube type ones now.

Welcome @Robbie d

Some great stuff you have and make, thanks for sharing.

 

[Mark]

Welcome mate, another fellow straight shooter. We need more. Keep'em coming! BTW I happen to be the scallywag straight enabler. Although that name has been taken already.

 

[stillshunter]

Love the leather case! Do you take orders mate?

 

[Robbie d]

Sure do.

 

[alfredus]

Love the leather cases as well - do you make them for DE's as well?
