    Default Primitive Kamisoris

    Here are a couple kamisoris I did recently, trying to keep them more primitive/medieval looking but easy to use. I knocked together the simple sheaths mainly for edge protection during shipping but also provides a simple storage solution for the time being. I need to make some boxes or stands with these pieces!!!!!
    They handled very easily on the hones and stropping was a breeze with both. Shaves were both bbs with 3 pass test shaves. Very happy with the result, albeit not for everyones taste! I'm playing with the idea of doing more primitive looking pieces and having the sheaths match more so by playing with textures, materials, etc.

    Both are beautiful but I really like the first one better. Just a matter of taste I guess. Looks like they would both be great shavers.

    Very nice. Don't be so stingy with the technical details.

    Been seeing a lot of your work lately, superb, trying to find a pic of a big 9/8 or 10/8 I saw of yours, spike point / spanish point type razor you were holding with an old Sheffield, was a gorgeous blade, heard my Sheffield's yell up from the basement in jealousy, do you happen to know the one I'm talking about, have a pic?

    Great work!

    I like the top one. Looks great.
    As for the stands: I stopped making stands because when you get down to it, they are pretty useless. They're nice for taking the initial pics, but I've found that noone really uses them for storing their razor. I know I wouldn't. The scales with paracord otoh are perfectly usable for storing your razor between shaves.
