    Hello world, I've been reading up on straight razors from SRP for some time now, this site has introduced me to the straight razor shave (the only kind that doesn't turn my face into a tomato) and as a near constant DIYer in every aspect of life, has introduced me to the art of straight razor design. I'd like to also say thank you to the entire SRP community for motivating me to come as far as I have.

    Well, I like to make symmetrically ground Kamisori and straight razors with wood scales but I recently tried my hand at acrylic, didn't turn out quite as good as I had hoped though.

    Well, I've got a straight razor that I make, and I tried my hand at acrylic scales and a funny shaped Kamisori too. I've tried a bunch of different handles with my knife making, so I tried to adapt those designs to something that would work in a kamisori razor.
