Got this back last week, Val added a pair of green / gold scales that really pop, and cleaned it up, and put a superb edge on using his J-Nats this time.

Damn,, that's gorgeous phrank. Val did a nice job on those skins. How's the shave, dare I ask?

Quick phone pic of two NOS blades:
- Hitachi Yasuki Steel (HYS) "Hard" 6/8
- Takehana "Feon" 6/8
Hoping they'll hone up beautifully.....
Got several NOS Japanese blades this week. The "Dream" has interesting designation on the back of the tang, not sure what it means but I have never seen one like that before.
Nice haul, Stefan. My next RAD target is most definitely a shoulderless Japanese full-hollow. Too bad you singlehandedly drove up the price point with this grab. ;)
I think I need to start buying "several NOS Japanese blades" at a time, if I could ever find them. Beautiful blades, Stefan.
"Super Excellent Razor" " Best Dream Steel."
You know your onto a winner with captions like that! :D
Congratulations Stefan.
Stunning batch Stefan. I'm still fondly appreciative of the Pechika 55 you recommended several years ago.
