PUMA 39: “Für Extra Starken Bart” 6/8
Für Extra Starken Bart (For Extra Strong Beard), This Puma 39 truly is a great shaver, made with the praised and famous PUMASTER steel, which is a carbon steel that has been nickle or chrome plated to help protect it from rust. Not inox, but certainly most resistant to humidity than regular Puma Steel…
It does have a bit of an uneven hone wear toward the tip, most likely it’s previous owner did use some extra pressure in his X-strokes but it is not an issue when you hone it and it gets super sharp easily despite been a harder steel. The scales look beautiful but you have to be careful when closing, as they are a bit aligned to the left.. Because of this, I am giving you a super low price on this razor. So if you want a puma without paying the super entry price that some crazy people charge fothem, here’s your opportunity.. not only to have a puma but a puma with Pumaster steel!
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 (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 faster, let me know and I can quote different speeds. 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. Payment is expected within 24 hours after commitment.
Price: $65
