Japanese Straights

**JGKC9AYC** · 05-01-2013, 05:29 PM

Guess i'll chime in with my Japanese razor.
I think this one has been the most expensive in my short journey into wet shaving.
I've not tried it out yet for some reason. Perhaps because i'm pondering one from Wacker or Brian Brown. Mine is NOS, but the seller sharpened it before sending it to me.
If anyone has one like this & can chime in on why I should or shouldn't sell it to get me one of the above mentioned customs, please feel free to do so, but keep it nice.

Of course the answer is why not get the Wacker + BB while keeping the Toyo?

I have the same Toyo and received mine NOS as well. It's a great razor. I also have a couple of Wackers which I really like as well. I'm glad I have all of them in my rotation.
A BB is on the list to get so I can't give any first hand opinions on those at this point. The Wackers aren't necessarily considered custom razors - the BBs are considered as such even if you don't commission him to make one for you specifically.

I wish I was that dude on the motorcycle commercial with money flying off him. Then i'd probably consider it!

I honestly don't know, fella's. One day I had a measly amount of posts, the next day BOOM!
There's gotta be a bug somewhere, but who am I to say?

Do you have cats?
My girls like to play with the computers... and the things they do, I'm always surprised but they teach me lots of new tricks!

Yeah, I got a couple of Munchkin cats, but they don't mess with "Daddy's" computer.

What?? That's only 43.8 million + posts a day.

I saw it a week or so ago and asked about it and its a bug they're working out. I've seen a couple of others also. Gives a whole new meaning to the blabber mouth icon.
