Just got this one back from Val at The Gentleman's Den, who put a stellar edge on this razor. While I am not bad at honing, for my prize razors, Val simply puts the best edge I've ever shaved from, and his use of the Escher for the finishing is superb.
Love this one that Sergej of RigaRazor did, in the style of the Mappin "Lancet Edge", beautiful lines and superb hollow grinding.

That's got a very cool profile. Spine definition really jumps out at ya. Nice shade of horn scales as well.

Can you take a pic of the grind of the razor? I really like the lines and the flow, but I want to see how hollow it is ground. Thanks

Awesome blade! Nice to see that an eccentric blade from the past can inspire blades of the future.

Hi Stefan - had my son hold the razor, best I can do for the shot, but a real singing blade, absolutely BBS shave with this beauty.

Thanks Andrew, that looks like a 1/2 to 1/4 hollow to me, would you agree? Originally Posted by Phrank
