    I was 50/50 on this razor until it got a super nice edge. I love it now. The size is really nice, really maneuverable.

    I have yet to get a picture of my collection. I have 6 kamisori. I had 7 but had to sell the Iwasaki to buy stones. Hopefully can afford a new one by christmas.

    I have a damascus and one with watetsu(ancieny iron with wood grain like tamahagane)

    NOS Parker that just came in today. I was about to take it to the hones but it was popping hairs like a dandy so I think I'll strop and give her a run tomorrow. If not I'll hone her up!
    It's a generous blade with plenty of heft a what looks to be a little stiffer grind. Just my kind if razor...
