    Very impressive razor, Jamie. The script and precision of Mr Gardner's name is almost equally impressive!

    Also a Kamijo Yukio as most rare razor in my den. Bought it long ago just to have one, not a full hollow but a near wedge 11/16” with Ivory scales.

    Lewis must have been a razor maker in one or two previous lives.

    For certain. As varied as his razors are, I quite like the simpler ones such as yours.
    The craftsmanship really stands above all in these, JMO.

    Mine.....Another one of a kind.

    oooh, wished I had bought one of his "fixies" back in 2012. Lovely, Tom!!

    Indeed, superior craftsmanship is Charlie's hallmark along with his "primitive" (simple, no-frills, classic, etc.) aesthetic.

    I think I have one of these also will need to check if it is a Boker also

    For certain....Hard to come by. You hardly ever see one for sale?
    Guys like us keep them!
