I have had one of the most pleasant shaves, thanks to Bruno at Snailforge. I purchased the wootz blade on the Buy/Sale/Trade forum a few weeks ago. I asked Bruno to match the blade with an appropriate set of scales and with his help, I choose Mammoth ivory and Bruno went to work. I received the razor yesterday and gave the massive blade its maiden run this morning. It was superb! The large blade was perfectly balanced and effortlessly performed its magic. Bruno promised that I would enjoy the wootz metal. He put a great edge on the Monster, and I'm hooked. The wootz not only is beautiful(matches perfectly with the Mammoth) the edge was remarkable. Bruno was great to work with and I'm 100% satisfied. If you're ever able to shave with his blades, do it. You won't regret it. Thanks, Bruno.Attachment 269286

you devil. i wanted that blade!

That said, i received two of my first blades from Bruno this morning as well and they are outstanding. haven't shaved yet, but the quality and service are absolutely top notch.

Truthfully, I'm tickled to death that I purchased it. If another comes up, you'd better be quick!

I almost purchased the top blade. That's beautiful Demascus and loved the scales. I assume we're both happy.

I have a big problem with ordering one of Bruno's razors. From what I've seen it would make the rest of my collection look like junk. Keep up the good work Bruno.

Hahaha no it just makes you keep spending money so you have a top notch collection. There are many fine craftsmen out there. Bruno though, is in the top tier no question there

I hate him, the guy just tries to get all my money, highway robber. to be honest I don't even know how many I got! one of these days I,m going to pull them all out, plus I still have a blade in his shop that got broke. hate him ( I,m kidding love the guy) Tc

It is my honest goal to have that one replicated before February. :)

That is one big momma of a trilobite :)

the scales balance the blade well.... Great job.

From the edge of my keyboard, Bruno's razors look quite spectacular. You were smart to snatch up that blade.

I cannot wait to shave with a wootz blade one day. :brunoisright

me either I have a Wootz, yet due to circumstances and timing i haven't shaved with it yet and ive had it since February Tc

Just had to share this pattern with you guys on the razor I got from Bruno earlier this week. I know he's already posted this blade before but it definitely merits a closeup and makes me appreciate the pairing with the fire-like scales even more.
