Thread: Zowada Tamahagane/Meteor Straight

I'm almost positive this is owned by a member here.

I guess it boils down to diminishing means, and how much money you have to spend. If you have $2000+ to spend on a razor, then it's not an issue of money. In that case a meteorite steel custom smelted and forged razor would seem like a bargain!

The tang, spine, grind, damascus pattern and bevel size are impeccable.

Good point. I just spent $28.50 tonight and that is my budget for the month.

That would be 5.8 years to save to this level.

I wonder if that kilo of cella will last that long........

I am tempted to bid..............

I hear the shave on those meteorite razors is outta this world ..........

I would buy it except for the horrible international shipping program....... I just have to stop eating for a few months too.

Seriously if the razor is shipped normal USPS then no import tax in Korea but using the program course of Ebay it adds $300-$400 plus this shipping time is longer.

That's the problem with current demand. If it ain't big, it ain't going to earn the big bucks.

I'll spot you some Williams if you run short.

I would bid on it, I have wanted a TZ for a long time. But NYS has confiscated my Refunds, and I just had an emergency Vet fiasco. So, no buying for a while.

Reserve not met at $1,030.00. As has been pointed out in this thread the razor should have been posted with the actual sales price wanted by the owner.

I don't understand listing with a reserve. I usually just skip those listings. Why make us chip away to find the minimum bid?
