    So elegant in their simplicity. I would assume joy lurks in their use.

    Sweet razors, how does the kamisori shave? The blade looks a little longer than the one I owned and I did not enjoy using it.

    Thanks. I test shaved that Kamisori style one this afternoon and it felt good. The blade length is 2" which suits me quite well.

    Very nice, love the look, love the square point, spike point, looks to be a good size as well. The first one looks like it would sit nicely alongside some of my 9/8 W&B's....would love to try one. For me, that the aesthetic I look for in a blade, next of course it how they shave.

    Excellent work!

    All look solidly crafted. Well done sir.
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    Absolutely beautiful... I think the word "effort" is drastically miss leading. These are full blown "successes".
