I'm a backer on Indegogo. So far, we are all being fobbed off with stories about delays, quality issues etc. The original delivery date was supposed to be February, then August. It's now almost October and still no one has received anything.
Their social media accounts pretty much ground to a halt last year, they don't reply to comments on Indegogo and post the occasional random update making excuses.
I really wonder if we will ever see the real thing.

Sounds like these crowdfunding sites are becoming scams. The backers should get their money back as soon as the deadlines are passed and no product is delivered. Also kickstart and indiegogo should pick up the tab and refund backers.

From reading the comments for broman, one backer is implying fraud as there is no backer protections in place.

I backed the parthenon razor early on. What a POS that thing is. I have only backed one other project by Range Leather, but it would be way harder to screw up a leather dopp bag than a razor I would think. At least I came out ahead on that one I guess.

When I hear the name of that razor this is the first image that pops in my head...

I backed the Broman early on and am equally frustrated by the delays and lack of communication.

Thankfully, I was lucky enough to be able to order it for £4 (£1 for the razor and £3 for shipping), so the potential financial loss for me is negligible.

I am concerned for the people who have shelled out decent money on this razor and am flabbergasted to see that people are still backing the razor at £40 a pop, with the last backer signing up 5 days ago.

I truly hope it works out for all of us, but I’m not holding my breath.

It just takes one bad campaign to ruin it

Does anybody have those things yet?

It looks like the razors will now start to be delivered in April 2019 according to the email update they provided today.

They will apparently ship with 100 Derby Premium Blades as well.

I’ve copied the new pictures they provided on the update below.

Looks like they will begin delivery just as Rockwell is wrapping up delivery. Hopefully it will be worth the wait. Concept was an interesting one, but I don't think OneBlade need to look over their shoulder anytime soon.
