New razor design - the Purist
Here's a new design that's really easy to use and handles like a sports car. It's got a 2" blade and counterweighted handle to balance on your index finger.

Great concept & very useful stand. Bare blades need a safe rest
The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

That is amazing! Was this commissioned, or your own creative plaything? I really like it...

This was an idea I've been rattling around my brain for about six months. The idea was for simple elegance, easy handling and something of a "pure" shaving tool with form following function throughout. I'm glad you guys like it. The fellow that has the first prototype said it's a fantastic shaver and "handles like a sports car".

Robert, that's a beautiful razor. I really like your (redesigned?) maker's mark, too.
With all the weird angles on my face, that short blade would really be an advantage...
