Thread: 3/8 Le Grelot Thiers France

My 3/8 razor finally came in thought I would share it. Got it Nos from cha-wing!!! on ebay. It was able to shave hair of my arm so I stropped it up and gave it a go. Shave was extremely nice, wont be in the regular rotation but definitely for special occasions. Was a bit hard to strop at first but I got use to it, tang had jimps on top and bottom so was easy to hold.

Here are just a few pics of it

Nice razor. If you learn to shave, strop and hone with 3/8", you should have no problems with bigger razors.

When it comes to those little critters most folks pass them by because they are hard to handle and really were not designed for actual shaving, more trim really.

There are a lot of NOS pieces out there in those sizes. I bought a NOS merkur 2/8s several years ago. it's too small for me but it's a nice looking piece.

Yup...a lot of people poo pooing the smaller razors and chasing after those 7/8, 8/8, 9/8, and bigger hunks of steel. One of my best shavers is a 4/8 Morley.

Cool selfie, by the way.
