Green Eyed Lady Custom 10/8 - Razor Rest

**rbaker2778** · 03-17-2014, 04:08 PM

Guys:

For any of you that like the way it looks in the pictures, rest assured it is 1,000 times better in person. This razor is art. My assistant (a 50 something year old woman) stated that she liked it so much she would put it up as art in her home. How's that for an endorsement!

I will be shaving with this tonight. 4 days growth in anticipation of of the arrival. I cannot wait until tonight.

And by the way, I have NEVER seen anything packaged as securely as this razor. Micro fiber cloths, bubble wrap, soft foam padding (like a mattress pad), etc. This razor was packed for the apocalypse, but in a good way.

If this shaves half as good as it looks, I am getting back on the wait list immediately.

Thanks again, Ken!

I find this razor beautiful, I admire it.

I have had this song in my head since I saw the title to this thread. This thread has been good for me.

Shave Report:

Shave was amazing. The blade was not too big, and not too small...just right. I simply stropped 20 laps on untreated pressed felt and 50 laps on leather.

A nice lather of Castle Forbes cedar and sandalwood with a little glycerin and Mitchell's wool fat ( my favorite combo recipe) and I was ready to go. Did three full passes and didn't want to stop. Perfect shave.

I love the grind too. Hollow indeed, but doesn't feel thin. The blade is really very stiff, and very nice. Really a perfect balance for me.

Get on Ken's list, and don't look back. You will not regret it!

Wow Ken, you truly set the standard around here - everything I've seen from you is a work of art. Bravo.

Fantastic job indeed! Very nicely made razor. I love the added led light for effects! When I was turning wrenches on Harley's, I always had to put the lights on bikes.
