Thread: Question Japanese Razors currently listed in the classifieds

There are currently 2 Japanese Razors listed in the classifieds of Straight Razor Place.

Are these considered good shaving razors? Or are they considered more for collecting?

Are they more difficult to sharpen and such?

For some reason they caught my eye but I want a usable razor to add into my rotation. So any thoughts?

Of course they are usable razors. However if you have questions about them why not get it from the horses mouth-the seller. They know them like no one else right?

I wanted some outside opinions or personal experiences.

Japanese blades shave great.

Seth is quite knowlegeable when it comes to Japanese razors. Their western style straights are among my very favorite razors and I have several different makes and manufacturers and have never been sorry I purchased one.

Like everyone has said, Seth knows his stuff. Pull the trigger or someone else will.
