    I don't think I've seen another one of these but I only come around once in a blue moon so I def have some catching up to do.
    Never seen a Joseph Elliot like it. It looks the the sort of straight razor that a character in a Frank Frazetta painting would use.

    I suppose.....It is also no 'faux frameback', either.

    Early hollow-ground. A 'rattler', if anything?

    17/16... It must be most heavy, Cheetah!

    It is heavy. You'd be suprised how it removes hair from my face. Like hot butter through broccoli. It's amazing..LMAO Or is that like hot butter on a biscuit

    I know what the kanji means. Basically states it's hand forged with hitachi steel. Don't know the maker. Tang has hammer marks. The steel is very hard and the grind is very thin. I'll take it over my iwasaki any day.

    Once of my best shavers and I haven't come across another one like it. Something tells me there is something special about it, and not to let it go.
