    Default PRC (Portland Razor Company)

    I performed a search but could not find PRC under this sub forum so if it exist I apologize. But I figured with the brand and it's following it was fitting to have it's own little piece of the sub forum.

    My one and only so far 6/8 Kraken (French point) with black buffalo horn with the slightest of blonde cream in the horn when looked at closely. I requested Scott do extended jimps along the top and this was the outcome! A true 1/4 hollow grind masterpiece. I look forward to my next razor from them as well.

    When you have time Michael, I'd love to see a picture of the grind (blade shot head on from the toe) since 1/4 ground seems to mean different things in different razors.

    Will do Harold when I get a chance. Hopefully it will show up well.

    So far very much so. It holds a edge and has been a great shave. Has that squeegee effect that I was warned about as compared to a full hollow. But has a nice heft to it and plows through the facial hair with ease.

    Very nice looking razor. I live in Portland, and have had the pleasure of visiting Scott and the gang on a couple of occasions. Scott is a stand-up fellow, is very welcoming of visitors, has always been quick to respond to my questions or concerns, and has done a terrific job with PRC. I've enjoyed the one razor that he did for me, and anticipate that I'll be ordering a custom razor from him in the near future. I'm sure that you'll enjoy that beauty.
