    Default 8/8 Similing chopper with a hamon

    This is a razor in a design I call Ottoman, because it was inspired by the W&B Ottoman.
    The Steel is XC130 and gives very smooth shaves. It's my new favorite carbon steel, dethroning O2.
    The scales are stabilized burl wood.
    It was water quenched with a clay coating on the spine to get a wild hamon.
    Cost is 450 USD plus shipping.

    Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.
