Bill Ellis Rocks!!!!!!!!!!He was recon in Vietnam and makes razors from scratch..how cool can one guy be!!!!!!!!!!!!
He saw where I was broke money wise and a custom guy was kinda making fun of my cheap razors. He said "I got a cheap razor for you". He said for 12.99. It came time to pay.........he wouldn't take my money!!!!!!!!!!!
Proud to have this guy as a fellow American....heck I'm proud to say I even know who he is!!!!
Sincerely......God Bless You Bill Ellis

Take the $12.99 and buy the mocker a book on manners and etiquette.
Better, donate $12.99 to a veteran's charity.

Bill can be a bit brusque. Even to the point of not selling to people with whom he has political disagreements. Fortunately, I'm not one of them.
He does good work, and also good works. I think I'll visit his website and see what's new.

Thumbs up on Bill. He has helped me on honing a tricky razor.
