Very nice!! What a transformation
Glen that's amazing. You're the first person I know that has done a restore like this. Congrats on a great job!
Just finished the first shave, and as expected these things are incredibly sharp..I finished it on the Nakayama
-but-
I should also mention the Microtome conversions are not forgiving at all, you have to have a very light touch, and near perfect technique.. What I am saying is these are an Adventurer's razor compared to a Western straight, and even more difficult to shave with then a real Kamisori... They are a fun project, not something to seek out... That being said one multi-directional pass and I am good to go :D
sounds like my kinda edge :mace:
Superb work Glen, as usual. I am sure the owner will be very happy. So are you taking orders for "regular" western straight blades done in this style??
Yeah I think so, I think I can make that work
You have PM
pm returned and picture of blade I would like to use emailed. :)
Here we go... can't wait to see more and more of these pop up. :D
