Thread: Is the Bastion straight razor worth it?

BASTION STRAIGHT RAZOR DAMASCUS STEEL WITH PURE CARBON FIBER HANDLE

Has anyone used these razors before? Are they worth spending $100 on? The look of the Damascus steel is interesting, though it might look better with something other than the carbon fiber.

No. Not worth it.

Fake Damascus from Pakistan. Why the flip not? Only $99. What a deal.

No. Not worth it x 2

I will let their own words answer your question;

Bastion LLC is a company that makes custom magazine floor plates and accessories for handguns.




"Our first attempt at straight razors. We are very happy with the way these came out. Trully one-of-a-kind and aggressive design.
We used Damascus steel and 3K carbon fiber.
The razor also features a mosaic Bastion pin. All come with a leather sheath for storage.

SPECS:
closed: 6.5" x 1-3/8" x 1/2"
open: 9.25" x 1-3/8" x 1/2"

Weight: 2.5oz"

Pretty much says it,,,,,,,,,,,

I'd call it "Razor shaped object"
Spine looks like a good strop destroyer.
