    Beautiful Gabor. Just the thing to use before attending a black tie event. The belly looks well executed. How do you find that affects the shave? Adam

    My first response was Wow. looks great. Such a daring grind, lovely shapes, long tail, love it all. But the opposing curves on the handle and the scales makes me wonder how difficult it would be to strop. Perhaps the maker could enlighten?

    Absolutely fantastic work. The grind is sensational, wow. I really like the shape of your scales as well, the whole package is great.

    Some years ago, I made a full hollow without a belly. The blade was too flexible. It was nearly impossible to hone this razor, because it flexed away on the stones even with very little pressure. With this blade I dont had this problems.

    Like you can see, it is without problems possible to strop it.
