    Thumbs up I think I need a few of these... (new Koraat razors)

    Right. So I already have one Koraat Razor (review is here), and it's a lot of fun. Bit on the almost-too-big side, but fun. Stefan Peter Wolf of nassrasur.com and Ulrik seem to have teamed up to bring more chunky razor goodness to us... I think I'll have myself some of these...


    Fire and Ice.

    And it looks as though there would be enough for all of us, too... [Source: facebook]

    I like the second razor with the French point best. Something about those scales are enticing.

    I cannot see clearly enough in the first two, but I am a sucker for fancy spine work. Looking and guessing form the last shot I have to go with both.

    Just to throw a spanner in the works
    I like the second French point steel and scale design but would like it with the amboina curl wood for the scales

    Luckily, these razors can be fully customised: http://www.koraat-knives.at/onlineko...ite1/Index.php

    These exact same razors have not hit the market yet. [edit: And they cannot be customised]

    I am pleased to see that there are so much positive reactions!

    But I have to correct Robin concerning his last post:
    These razors are exclusively made for nassrasur.com. These special spineworks will not be added to my configurator and therefore customized versions wont be available. It just wouldn´t be fair towards my retailers to offer variants of their exclusive models.

    best regards,
    Ulrik

    They all seem to be quarter hollow grind or wedge grind does he do anything less such as a full or even a half hollow? Plus all the heels end in that abrupt square edge which is not something I like.
