I guess I'm just missing it, but my question stands. Can't find a manufacturer's website. The Weber site just talks about handles. Can anyone steer me to the manufacturer's website if there is one? Failing that, where does one buy the bloody things?

TIA,

Hi Beamon, it is a bit tricky in that you need to email Mongoose directly: mongooseorders@gmail.com

They also have a Facebook page with additional info etc.

Great luck!

And, when I dropped them an email asking for info, availability and prices, here's what they emailed back to me:

"Greetings from Mongoose,

"Thank you for your interest in the Mongoose Razor - we appreciate the inquiry; sorry for the delay in responding.  As you may have read, we are currently in production, but inventory is thin and we are working down a rather large backlog of open requests.  So, we are taking your email address and add it to our “notification list”.  Please make sure we have your full real name – some email addresses have nicknames or incomplete information; those requests will not be added to the list as we need real names for the system.  Thanks.  Once we have razors in stock, we will contact you.

"PLEASE NOTE: the wait could be several weeks (possibly up to a couple of months), as we are fulfilling demand in the order people joined the list and are VERY behind schedule.  If you are receiving this note, you are on the list, so there’s no need to check in every so often – nobody “falls off” the list.  We will get back with you as soon as possible, but do anticipate lengthy delays.  We apologize, but the shop we are currently using is having difficulty keeping up.  We’re working on additional sources, but must ensure they meet the same standards we currently have.

"In addition, updated information regarding Mongoose Razors will be posted to our Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/MongooseRazors?fref=ts).  As for pricing, the Polished finish is $169 – head & ½” handle, shipped in the US (due to the high expense of mirror-polishing and increased inspection), and the Satin finish is $159 – head and ½” handle, shipped in the US.  Overseas will be somewhat higher, due to the additional postage and insurance.  Head-only purchases may be made too, at about $10 less than the full kit.  There’s no need to let us know now which razor you want.  When we contact you later, we will send the full ordering instructions, which will ask for your ordering specifics and PayPal information.  You can order more than one razor, if you wish.

"Please note – the Polished heads may take longer, as our polishing shop has been very backed up.  We want to be up front about those delays, so you can make your decision based on reality.  We will not, however, be offering the larger handles, which means the 5/8” diameter Dub Legend (polished) and Big Bomber (satin) handles will not be a purchase option.  Thanks again for your interest and for contacting us about the Mongoose Razor.  

"Best Regards,
The Mongoose Team"
