    Amazing razor, and that grind looks to be perfect, so thin I'd probably grind through it.

    The grind is very impressive the gold splash not so much... the scales spacer is very big for such a thin blade, a wedge would close that big gap and give the scales flex.

    That is impressive! I like the bellied grind. That's not an easy one.
    The gold is pretty. Very well done. Lots of enjoyable shaves for the new owner.
    Great stuff Ulrik!

    Hi Martin,


    I am glad that you like the grind!
    I am aware that the gold splash is very extreme and therefore surely not everyones cup of tea ;-)

    Concerning the spacer. That is a willful decision. Of course we could make a real wedge (as we do if a customer want´s us to) But our blades are heavy, even when full hollow ground and the big spacer gives a good balance to the razor. Further we have designed the scales in a way, that the blade is resting on the shoulders, when the razor is closed. The hollowground has no contact to the scales which prevents scratches and pittings.

    @ALL: Thank you for your kind comments!

    best regards,
    Ulrik
