    I mean if it was a big choppin 9/8 or 10/8 I'd buy it. For a 6/8 I couldn't justify spending more than half of its starting price.

    for any of you guys who has purchased a Timahagane razor its well above that price, but like people have said its all in who wants it. great craftsmanship in his razors and that steel is very unique, so for any sitting on the fence wanting one of his this is a great buy. Tc

    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........

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
