Thread: I think I have finally found a better word for "custom" razor

I see what you are trying to say, but I would counter that it depends on the design.
And it also depends on the eye of the beholder.

You prefer the minimalist, functional design. Others prefer something much more elaborate. In that sense it's like jewelry. Some people like very modern, minimalist design, and some people prefer victorian style gaudiness.

To each their own. I have orders for both ends of the spectrum. My only requirement for making a customer design is that it is fully functional and that the design does not impede normal use, honing, stropping etc. I have refused several orders for that reason. Other than that, the customer is king.
