    I mix them up Dan, but I have taken a strong liking to extra hollow ground. That being said the Hoshi Tombo 6000 is a Kamisori grind and an incredible shaver.

    The scales on the Fuji are not original I had them re-done by Stefan this year- absolutely stunning work!

    I was likely eyeballing that Diamanten on eBay a few months ago...NOS and a very affordable price since it's not a well-known brand. I really loved those crazy blue scales! Nice to see one here on SRP.

    I know the one you are talking about I had just gotten this one but THAT one went for a BARGAIN! This one was NOS as well.

    The blade intrigued me and the scales pushed me over. Can't wait to give her a shave.
