Size:  33.8 KBThis one is an 8/8's full hollow with jimps top, bottom, fore, and aft. She has a sorta French point with a spikey toe and heel. She has an almost primitive surface from 3 normalizing firings and a final, but is polished to a high shine.

    Scales are blue/green vinyl sheet abalone in the 3 pin format.

    My test shave with her was outstanding. Thanks to Mike Blue for some advise he gave me on improving grain quality.

    As always thanks for looking

    The other meaning to the name is "Original Custom Designed Razors"
    otherwise, I could use Charlie Lewis's logo

    Na! If you knew Bob, you would agree "OCD" is proper!
