Thread: Kropp 5/8+, with box, great condition!

Actually 9/16, but listing as 5/8 t be able to give you an even better price
An excellent razor.. i must say super easy to get it to wicked sharp edge, great pitch when shaving, smooth shaves, nice steel, great balance… in all regards a great brand and a great specimen in great condition! Bot has seem some more the hit of the time but still solid and good looking for its years (judge by yourselves).

Made and Ground in Sheffield – England to hollow ground, you will not regret if buying this as your first razor because of it’s round point. Or if you are an experienced user because you will get a lot of control and a super smooth shave!!

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. Then stropped on 0.3micron CrOx -> 0.1micron FeOx,As -> Latigo leather -> Japanese Shell (40 laps each)…. As I said, comfortable shaving for me (that means, my beard, skin, technique etc…), but maybe some more stropping is required for your taste. No razor leaves if I have not tested, but no worries, after testing, blade is properly cleaned/disinfected and a thin coat of camellia oil is applied to protect it and safely packed for the travel.

I only use tracked post for sake and peace of mind of both parties (to be covered by buyer), but no worries! Regular International shipping to the US & Canada is only: $5 (around 30 business days is what the post office give as estimate time, I’ve seen most of the times it takes less). If you want it a bit faster, let me know and I can quote. International shipping rates to other countries might vary just a bit (1 or 2 bucks at the most), please contact me to check. Will do my best to ship the next day after payment but else, no more than 3 business days.

Price: $85

I have a 6/8 Kropp. It is a great shaver. I suspect this 5/8 is as well.
