Hi Neil,  just wanted to say that I received my dovo in the mail today-What a transformation!  Seriously I am totally dellighted with this work of art. Very pleasantly surprised by the highly-polished mock tortoise shell handle you fitted for me. And the blade is now "shave sharp" to a very high standard. As far as I'm concerned you've got a customer for life. My next venture is to purchase another blade (possibly from one of your vintage range) probably next month

The guy that runs the business is Neil Miller, he sharpened my C-Mon Blackie and did a cracking job, highly recommended by all in the industry.
I've referred several customers to Neil and they have all been delighted with the results.

Hi Neil, Just wanted to say thank-you for the Oriental razor. It looks fantastic, I cant understand why people would buy new razors, when you give these wonderful vintage models a new lease of life. Congratulations on a fantastic business, I hope to buy from you again.

Hi Neil,  Just received the goods, very impressed with the quick service.
The razors look wonderful and very sharp, can't wait to use them. I recently purchased a razor from ## and it's no where near as sharp as the razors you've sent.

Dear Neil, May I take this opportunity to thank you for the excellent edge you put on the Revisor
Derek S. UK


Neil,  I received the (ebony paddle) strop this afternoon.  I gave it a razor a quick stropping and it feels great.  That bridle really has some draw and the tallow tan is nice and slick.  Very different leather to the TI paddle which has virtually no draw in comparison to the bridle, and seems somewhat fluffy compared to your leathers.  I am very pleased with this strop, and think that ebony looks superb.  It certainly has a lot of length to it!  Im going to enjoy using it and wanted to thank you for such a fine product.

Neil, My pouches and razor arrived in good order. I gave one of the pouches to my son who was very pleased. The Boker is very nice. Thanks for doing such quality work.
S. Collins. USA


Neil, I just wanted to let you know how much I am enjoying my Solingen razor I purchased from you awhile back. It was "shave ready". I just ordered the "Boker".
S. Collins. USA


Hi Neil, I'm writing to let you know I got the package a few days ago, exceptionally well packaged I might add.  Many thanks for the great razors and the excellent pouch!

Hello Neil.  Just to let you know that the straights has arrived safe and in good condition.  I am so looking forward to try them out they are really beautiful, and I hope they shave as well as they look.
S. Moller. Denmark


Good afternoon Neil,  I am extremely happy with the products already brought from you. The vintage Macero is a beautiful piece and a joy to use.  I must admit, I check in to your website on a near daily basis. No doubt, I shall be doing business with you again!

(Re: strop and razor pouch sale)

The strap and pouches have arrived in good condition.
I am very happy. All three are nicely made and strop the has just the right size and amount of draw.
Why anyone would like a larger strop is beyond me.
I had a fantastic shave last saturday with an old Heljestrand no. 23, honed on a Mulller Thuringer stone and stropped on the new strop.

(Re: strop and razor pouch sale)

Hi Neil,

Thank you for sending the strop and leather case to me. I received the parcel on Saturday morning.

They really are first-rate and excellent value for money. I am very pleased that I found your web-page.

(Re: razor refurb and new ebony scales)

 

Hi Neil,

The razor is absolutely superb, my prized posession. Really appreciate the hard work you put into it.

Showed [my neighbour] the razor and he was amazed, hes an ex quality control panel beater with Rolls Royce and loves quality work, this was no exception.

(Re: custom scales)

 

Hi Neil

I got the Razor today, I really like the scales, they look really cool.

Neil

The strop has arrived this Morning - What can i say, I am totally blown away.

I was expecting it to be well made and substantial but this has far exceeded my expectations. I cannot believe I have been using a crappy small d**o strop for all these years.

Once again Many thanks

                                                                                                               Steve

 

Neil has honed and rescaled and repined two of my razors and honed my wapi, he made an amazing job of all 3

Hi Neil,

I received the razor yesterday. I can’t thank you enough for the work that you have done on it! The new scales are beautifully made, and are a compliment to the blade.

The blade looks fantastic and is as sharp as could be. I gave it a strop this morning and used it. It’s a lovely light razor and gives a superb shave.

If I come across any more razors in future, I’ll be sure to send them to you.Thank you also for the leather case, which is of very high quality... 

Once again I am delighted with the work that you have done for me. Your business deserves to flourish.

(Re: honing and polishing customers razor)

 

Hi

Got it today and just had a shave with it. Used a good prep, including Truffit and Hill pre shave oil and then poraso green shaving cream.

The razor is superb, it looks and feels fantastic, I am really pleased with it.

(Re: custom ebony scales fitted to customers razors)

Hello Neil!

First of all:

Many, many thanks for your excellent work with the razors that arrived last monday! Just perfect... The friction at the pivots is outstanding as well as the look of the spacers.

A tremendous work with the Heljestrand - the weight and feel is second to none...

                                                                                                                                   M. O.  Sweden

 

Try Neil, I have before (not with strops, but a 12k hone) he is UK. based, a member of B&B and a pleasure to deal with.

Someone bought a strop from him, and he said it was great.

Pictures don't do razor justice,very very nice...

+2 For the Neil Miller Strops.

He specially made me a Red Latigo and canvas double strop a couple of Months ago to the exact dimensions i wanted.

He is truly a lovely bloke to deal with and his workmanship is outstanding.

It only took about 1 week from ordering to receiving the finished product. During this time he kept me updated with the progress via Email.

The only trouble for Neil is that he wont get any repeat buisness from me because this strop will outlive me and probably several other generations.

By the way, I have seen your strops and your razors ... and I must say that everything you offer always strikes me as being of excellent quality and very fair value for money.

I certainly recognise the difficulty in finding good stock in England and the amount of time and effort you must put in to present razors and new leather strops in such fine condition.
