Thread: Bruno's Blade Club

From the SRP Classifieds many months ago, bought this Bruno razor 7/8 (blade only) from member EisenFaust.

Here it is after being polished and scaled by Val from The Gentleman's Den, with a design more suited to this exotic, very cool razor IMO.

Nice. That's an early one. I had to mark it on the tail because the tang was so slender.
There are many unfinished blades I sold which I never see the end result of.

Beautiful razor Bruno, first time I've shaved with one your razors - very nice, great 1/4 hollow, the tang was perfect in the hand.

Next up - the "Azumi" in post #252 from those pieces of ancient tamahagane steel I sent you - going to get a similar type treatment in red kirinite...Val and I are going to look at the proper Blade Runner, Tokyo type scales.

That's beautiful Andrew!!!! One of Bruno's early models, a show piece like all the rest.................

That one is on it's way now to another member in the States...it is a stellar shaver and is great in the hand and delivers a very nice shave.

This Bruno, from his post No# 252, made from pieces of tamahagane sword sections, is soon to be complete:



Bruno - did you find out any more information on how old those sections were?

Soon to be a member here.

It is made from antique tamahagane, and on its way to get some Tokyo flash scales.
The white bubbles are oil. I didn't check the pics until after the blade went out, so I have no better pic than this.

And here is the final Bruno, "Azumi", made from ancient Tamahagane steel from the nakago section of an antique Japanese sword, fresh from being honed and scaled in red kirinite. Will be picking it up Wednesday.
