    Default 6/8 Classic in green abalone

    Next up is a traditional razor with full mirror polish. The good old combination, 6/8 O1 at 60HRC, green abalone on black arcylic, wedge is green recon stone, CA finish on top. This razor is basically a Dovo on steroids, with a bit more meat in the hollow






    Thanks for watching, let me know how you like it!

    Classic, clean, nothing wrong with that baby.
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    Easy to like that straight razor. She would look good in any wetshavers rotation. : )

    Love the classic blade shape with the drawn out, low rider curve thing going on with the tang.
    And the wedge rocks, the liner really sets it off.
    It is just Whisker Whacking
    Relax and Enjoy!

    I'm not normally a big fan of green, but this is good green. Nicely executed.

    Looks great, classic style razor. 6/8 is the best size for me as well.
