    Thatīs it. Buh my english could be better

    Does the worked tail and overall shape handle well?

    No big difference to a normal razor. The main point is, that the blade seem to be a little much heavier than normal at the top. The balance is more to the point.

    I think that work like this is better suited to a Kamisori style razor

    Possible, but Iīm personally not a big fan of Kamisoris. Razors with a handle in my opinions are more practical (the edge protection is allways on board) and better balancend.

    and I understand that perfectly. It just seems a shame to hide such wonderful work even slightly with the scales. That said, I think the scales are fantastic too . . .

    OK, I had to post that, but I'll stop now . . .


    All kidding aside, it is a beautiful piece.

    Nice work. I would have seen a point less sqare to make the same line than the scale.

    Overall, it is excellent. But what caught my eye is the collar on the pivot pin. The color and shape are spot on.

    Very nice. Is the pivot pin a peened pin or a screw in setup?
