    Default Blue Steel Special 5/8, Faux Tortoise shell

    Hello folks,

    For sale is a pretty Blue Steel Special 5/8, full hollow, with nice faux tortoise shell scales. the blade has some light pitting that was polished and it's now in very good shape!.

    The blade is Shave Ready (for my taste). Honed with one layer of electrical tape on Naniwa Progression: Chosera 1k -> Aotoshi 2k -> Chosera 3k -> Chosera 5k -> Junpaku 8k, SS 12k, and finished in Suehiro Gokumyo 20K. As I said, comfortable shaving for me (that means, my beard, skin, technique etc…), but maybe some more stropping is required for your taste. After testing, blade is cleaned and a thin coat of camellia oil is applied.

    International shipping to the US: $5 (with tracking number - 15 to 20 business days is. This is what the post office give as estimate time, I’ve seen most of the times it takes less, but I guess this is for them to be safe). If you want it a bit faster, $12 (10 to 15 business days or less) and $16 for 10 business days or less. International shipping rates to other countries might vary, please contact me to check.

    To be paid with Paypal within 3 days. Will do my best to ship the next day after payment but else, no more than 3 business days.


    Price: $39
