Thread: Coil Spring Razor

Blade width is 1.021 inches, so I'd call it 8/8. Heel to toe is about 2.8"

Yeah, too long and it becomes unwieldy

Pics first hehehe

Okay I tested both razors Dan sent out

I found very little to Critique the grinds were VERY impressive, and I was amazed to find out he had made less than 10 SR's

The Orange G10 "Coil Spring" razor really had the feel on the face of a Vintage Razor, as most of you know I am not a huge fan of big heavy steel but this shaved and felt wonderful.. I had zero irritation even after a few hours.. I didn't think I could improve on the edge, and the feel was good so I felt no need to try and rehone it


The Kamisori style had the same exacting workmanship, I touched this one up on my Nakayama and I think I got a slightly smoother feel on the face, Dan is going to test shave it soon and see if he agrees..


Tons of fun to be had by all

Thanks Glenn, not only for the kind words but more importantly for the honest feedback on how I can improve. The orange coil spring razor is going to be donated to the group as part of the monthly give-aways (if it is accepted). Just my way of showing appreciation to you guys for taking the time and patience to guide a stubborn knifemaker through the world if razors.
