Thread: Portland Razor Company “Hydra” 6/8 Spanish Point (square) - long winded read

I, for one, liked the old design. But I'm in he minority on that one, clearly. The thicker bar stock, however, is a good thing.

This razor looks great! I love old traditional stuff like this and am seriously considering buying a straight razor myself but unfortunately this company doesn't yet supply to the UK

Send them an email. I think they do ship international on request.

Thanks Andy. I'll definitely give that a go

Wanted to bring back an older thread insteas of start a new one...
These are nice looking razors, similar in my mind to a Hart. I like supporting American startups too!

Ahoy Folks. It has been a while since my last post but a recent acquisition from PRC has compelled me to throw in another positive word for their razors.
I got a Siren and have been very pleased with it. I wont go into design details because you already know its features. I just wanted to give a two thumbs up
to Scott, Hunter, and everyone else at PRC for doing what they do so well and at very reasonable prices. I suspect another one may be floating up in the
lagoon in the near future

They certainly are wonderful razors! I will certainly get another and would love to have a spalted maple scale on the next one when they get some great wood stock back in. The only thing I will request on the next razor is double pin the scales this go round. Not that the single pin on my current Kraken is in anyway not holding up, I just like the looks since I have seen a few with this added. I would love if the spalted scales not available to get a nice white/blonde buffalo horn scales on the next possibly.

Great heavy well made feeling and balanced razor. Top notch business and yes, supporting an American business even if small for success!

For all you enthusiastic owners.....what's the lead time now?

and are they pinned or do they use those little hex screws?

Pinned and not sure on the wait time Harold.

Any further updates to Portland Razor Co to?
I'm in Australia and wouldn't mind purchasing one, as I find it is enticing to purchase a blade of quality from a start up business.
But there is a USD$35 shipping cost and should the item be flawed, return shipping would not make it a pleasant experience as this would account for around half the cost of the razor.
