If you promise to make a video of yourself shaving your head, and let me use that video in some of my marketing, along with paying for shipping - I will make you a left handed kamisori and give it to you, free. Here are a couple of pics of one of my past pieces to give you an idea of what it would look like....



How it sits on the stand...

So I am unfamiliar with these, but I am intrigued. I was not aware there was a left handed or a right handed blade with these razors.

It's all about the grind. The traditional kamisori is ground like a sashimi sushi knife. One side is nearly flat, with just the hint of a hollow, the other side a normal hollow grind is applied. Because the blade is asymmetrical, it will either be a lefty or a righty, depending on which side of the blade has the flat grind.

JohnGlueck that is a very nice razor!
