Just Remember to dry it off after use & store somewhere dry. Then it should last you a long time.

Thanks for the tips.. I will remember to do that. They should get here today or tomorrow.. Hopefully.
 
After the fact I did some searching and found it on a list of razors not to buy, on B&B from 2010. Eh, I’ll make up my own mind though.
I'd take anything from any site with a grain of salt. Generally speaking, people aren't very good at being objective. As I always say, FOR SCIENCE!
 
The Yaqi Sagrada Familia creeps closer and closer to Nashville.

That's an artisan I don't know much about - looks like their shop might still be closed up from the 4th of July since stock appears low. Hopefully they're all okay!
They use a Veggie (non-tallow) base, but it's the finest veggie base I've ever used and is better than a lot of tallow soaps. They sell mostly through Maggards and maybe another site. I find a lot of times they are out of stock on their own site, but in stock on Maggards.
 
A Razorock MJ-90 (both plates) with a Maggard's MR1 handle.

It's coming from Canada, so it'll be a while... but I'm excited to get it.

Was initially looking for an MJ-90A, with the knowledge I'd likely be replacing the handle (as it doesn't match). Found one with both plates and a black Maggard's handle. [emoji106]
 
Don’t do what I do..... I enjoy gambling, so I do this kind of thing every once in a while to see how good I am at the straight razor acquisition hobby. I want to stress, this is a bad way to buy razors... lol this lot is on the way. It cost me less than $150, so not a massive gamble, but I have a good chance of buying cracked and badly worn/rusted blades. Let’s see if it pays off!

Judging by the pics, the seller doesn't know much about razors. AMAZING CONDITION ?? I hope you get a pleasant surprise an they are what you wanted.

Honestly I don’t think they will be all that bad. A couple of nice razors and some project razors I can cleanup and turn around. If anything, I can reuse the scales, but I’m sure they will turn out to be better than they look.
