Portland Razor Company 8/8 Chopper: Buckeye Burl
-
I know you are proud of that one!
-
This is a much more handsome one than what I've seen from them posted in the past. Looks nice.
-
I have a 6/8 from Scott and it's a hefty razor. I can only imagine the weight of the 8/8...
Keep a good grip on that beauty...

I did the same, from a block of stabilized burl to that beauty. This is a new blade style, too. I like! I think Scott is on the path to straight razor greatness.

We gonna get a performance review?! RAD riddled minds want to know.

Feltspanky, the blade looks lots thicker than the PRC production razors and the grind looks more hollow. Do I have that right?
-
That's one gorgeous SR! If you don't mind admitting it....... what did it set you back? It appears to have a slight smile to it by design, is that correct? Have you performed the review yet, possibly in a different thread?
thanks for showing it off and happy shaving,

Beautiful razor. I communicated with Scott today, and I'm running out of self restraint. About to pull the trigger on a PRC razor. So good to see someone doing such fine work and so pleasant to work with. Making a great product from what I read and see.

Thanks for all the comments on my razor. I really appreciate them.
Just a PRC update. Recently PRC moved into a larger work space for manufacturing their products. The sprinkler Fire suppression system malfunction and dumped thousands of gallons of water into the work area. Production my be slowed for a short period of time but PRC is shipping product.

feltspanky;
Is the 8/8 Chopper listed on the Portland Razor Site? If so, what is it called?
-
No it's a collaboration between Scott (owner of PRC) and myself. I found the Buckeye Burl blanks for the scales and sent him a picture of a Wade & Butcher Ottoman Razor. I asked that he only use the picture as a guide. He used his artistic talents and created this beauty.

Thanks for the info and for posting that beauty!

Damned nice work on that razor. Love the Damascus blades he's posted as well.
