Saw your pic of the replated General, it's a beaut! BRG does some great work, will no doubt use them again whenever I get my hands on a NEW LC!

Thanks! I’ll say Chris was very prompt when it came time to do the work. I sent it off to him Friday, he worked his magic, and it’s turned around and already on its way back as of this morning! Can’t wait to see it up close and get a shave in!

He replated my Canadian Prewar Tech and Red Tip SS, both of which were lost by the USPS for over a month en route to him. Did emerge from the USPS blackhole eventually and once he had them in had it was back in my hands 6 days later. Great guy and very reasonable prices compared to some of the other replating shops out there!
 
Another stellar Stirling shave down range. The General is just about as good as it gets for me AC wise. I know many will scream Vector but I don’t have one so meh…
