    PRC's normal razor offerings consist of 6/8's blades, similar design lines for the blades and scales, point options for the tip of the blade, and a variety of scale choices. PRC sells those razors at similar price points. I do not consider these models customized razors.

    The PRC razors built for me have 8/8's blades. I sent in the drawings and blade dimensions, also selected my preferred scale materials and sent it to PRC. PRC also charges more to build these razors due to the extra time and materials required.

    So my question to MileMarker60 is how does PRC's process to build a (semi custom razor) for a customer differ from your quote (full custom razor).

    All I know is, I like my non-mass produced, artisanally crafted, somewhat customized razor. I hope I have not bespoken in error.

    Can anyone tell me what a Kustom Razor is? I think I heard about one that someone may have seen once.

    Yes that is correct.. the only correction is I didn't have the razor made, I made the razor

    That's cool they worked it for you. From your posted pics and the shape of the tail /tang , I assumed is was a 8/8 version of their typical design
