      love it!!

      i bought it as a gift, not knowing what to expect as a new barber myself. as soon as i opened the packaging it was beautiful, lightweight, and the engraving was perfect. i love the shave set add on, and they loved the gift. i am a little sad it didn’t come with a hone but it did come with a strop which is great!

      Great value for great starter

      Very pleased with this. Recently got a straight razor “starter kit” as a gift but it didn’t come sharpened. After a little research, for almost the same price as getting mine honed, I bought this razor, professionally honed, and received it faster than getting my original one honed. Awesome job.

      First Timer

      My first straight razor. Close first shave but the second shave was, well, OK at best. Blade was noticeably somewhat dulled after one use. To be expected I suppose as this was an inexpensive blade.

      Repeat offender

      I already had a Grim Dollar when I made this recent order. Was so pleased with the first one that I bought again so that I could build a bigger rotation and extend the amount of time between honing my line up. Definitely did NOT expect to get 50 4-pass shaves from a $30 straight razor before it started tugging. It doesn't handle as well as my Dovo and I don't expect the Grim Dollar to be able to compete with it shave after shave, hone after hone, year after year, they are in different classes. However, the value of this straight is incredible and I would recommend it to anyone, new or experienced. For the new shavers, it's a much easier pill to swallow than spending a couple hundred on a high end blade when they don't know if they'll like straight shaving or are worried about wrecking an expensive blade learning to strop, and for the experienced guys it is a good backup for when your main blade needs honing or you want to do a rotation without the cost involved of a multi-razor set.
