I literally saved up 130 dollars in change (not because I couldn't afford one but i didn't want to spend my money on a new razor instead of a vintage one)... and after a coupon to knifecenter.com I was able to purchase one...
I hate dovo's thick and clunky scales so I rescaled mine in horn with a solid brass wedge (already post the pics in customs but since Bismarck porn is here...) really something that means something to me now.... This will be my heirloom razor (along with my 1911 and my dad's Nikon f2) if I ever have kids

Second time I drooled over it today and it's still a beauty. Seriously, that is a terrific job, you should be proud! Originally Posted by Heespharm

Thanked: 61 Bismark....
Well I've been drooling over your palisander.... I'm thinking of buying one as a "daily driver" for my bismarck Originally Posted by Tack
Edit: yup so the superior shave only had 6 left and apparently the palisander isn't made in huge qty so I HAD to buy one? Time to sell sell one of my other razors to pay for it... Gonna do this next one in black with aluminum wedge in the same shapeLast edited by Heespharm; 12-19-2013 at 08:10 AM.

That sounds like a good enough excuse to me; I'm convinced. Originally Posted by Heespharm

For me it's the shoulder less design Originally Posted by Tack
