Hey I just bought that from you hahaha... Yeah I polished it shiney after I got it... Still had some rust on it..

How do you like it? To me it was shave ready, how close to shave ready was it for you?

Well I always dull my razors before I polish them... Just rehoned it on my nakayama asagi... It takes a killer edge... One of the sharper raZors in my collection... I felt like I robbed u because it sold for so little... :-( but thanks for the sale!

I needed the money for a kanayama strop do no worries and I paid less so I still made a profit of near 100%.

My nos Toyo 663 what do you guys think?

Here's my latest western style Japanese razor that I'll pick it up at the post office tomorrow morning. Tamako YSK tamahagane masa steel. It's not very pretty but is made with some very special steel and hand forged.

So many great razors in this thread! There's just something about the Japanese folders that really does it for me! Please, keep them coming!

Here's my Gold King that I've had a few months and have used quite a bit. I sent it out to be cleaned up a little when I had another restore being done. Here she is, all shiny Work and pics courtesy of mycarver. Will be on it's way back next week.

Sexy! Nice geometry and stylish scales!

Tamahagane Straight I recently acquired. I am hoping it doesn't kick off a new round of SRAD!
