Japanese SK3 Curved Razor (6/8+) – Elegant!!!!

**gabrielcr78** · 11-30-2018, 04:54 PM

This is not only a gorgeous razor, but also it’s a pleasure to shave with it if you, like me, sometimes have issues with some longer blades under the neck. The design is a great balance between delivering a smooth shave even under the neck area, and not too difficult to hone (or strop) the smiley edge.

The grind is hollow but you can see in the pictures that it has a belly, the tang, the balance, the grip… Everything about this razor is thought for you to have a luxurious comfortable shave. Not to mention the fine steel and temper; you will see how nice it behaves on the hones. Of course, while honing, you’ll need to bounce your strokes to keep the smile as is, and the edge width constant, but I don’t think the difficulty of honing is too high.

It comes shave ready (for my taste; that means, my beard, skin, shaving technique etc…), but maybe some more stropping is required for your taste. Honed on progression of Naniwas up to 12k and finished in SG20K. After honed and tested, the razor has been cleaned, disinfected. Then for protection, it will be oiled and wrapped in VCI paper and will safely packed for the travel.

Shipping (to be covered by the buyer) to almost any country using EMS for expedite delivery (about 10 business days from shipping date to deliver at your country customs office) for only $15 to the US (ask me for other countries). Note: If you prefer, I can ship it for free without tracking number under buyer’s responsibility on F&F payments.

Shipping within 3 business days after payment. PayPal payment is expected within 24 hours after commit to buy the razor in this thread. Generally willing to hear reasonable offers. *Always happy to help grouping razors to reduce individual shipping costs!*. As with all Vintage razors, there could be defects in the blade or scales, but all my razors’ are checked clear of any pitting or nicks in the edge during honing, and scales are tight and close ok unless the contrary is specified.
