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.

Here you go.............had to find my macro lens. This is freehanded without the aid of a tri-pod so hope it comes through enough for you.

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. Originally Posted by Haroldg48

Lemy, how do you like the shorter blade length in a PRC razor? I have often wondered since they use the wider bar stock. Post a picture of that little beauty! Originally Posted by Lemy
