Jumping Jehosephat, that's amazing!

Does he do deals? I may send him more than one...

 

[NotTheStig]

I sent him three and I got 5% off (he might not thank me for saying that though!) He is always in demand so expect it to take a few weeks especially with postage back and forth and this time of year.

Probably the best examples are the other two, one of which I had redone in nickel, the other gold again.

ROCKET HD:
Although the New was very impressive I'm not sure my camera could capture the gold well. The Rocket is in my opinion even more impressive:

Notice the pitting is much, much better after the replate. He obviously does a bit of grinding or something to smooth it out.

[NotTheStig]

No, both mine look like that when the silo doors are open. When closed the ring is at the bottom.

Congratulations on that new addition to your shaving arsenal.
