Thread: Wedge razor club

that IS exquisite!

Glad you like her. She is a smooth shaver and has quickly become one of my favorites. Purchased not long ago from Padron, to whom I should also give credit for the photo.

Ok you win.
Bloody show-off....mumble......mumble.....mumble........

Figured I would have to do this sooner or later lol... I've got plenty more, but this will do for now.

Did that first one come stock with the thumb and finger notches, or was that done afterwords? I've been meaning to ask if that's something any of the forum members can do, because I've been tossing around the idea of having a blade notched.

That's original. They're pretty rare though. I have that and another different type of blade but it hasn't been restored yet. It could probably be done on a hardened blade with the right equipment, but personally I would guess it to be more trouble than it's worth.

Um, is that a wedge? The light reflection makes it look pretty concave. Also, the etching identifies it as a hollow ground razor. Is it a stealth wedge?
