Thread: Kikuboshi Orion 265 – Beautiful :)

Razors like this leave something really clear: Japanese really know how to create great razors, balancing aesthetics with functionality. The performance of this 11/16 gorgeous razor is remarkable. The pronounced French point, the stamp in the blade, the details on the tang, the inlay of the gorgeous black scales, the balance and the steel temper…
Masterpiece. Oh when you have it on your hands, you will find yourself smiling proudly… I’m sure of that.

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.

Price: $135
