The first Kamisori razors I have seen that are that large. Thanks for posting those.

That is a huge blade. Thanks for providing the photos.

I have one, though I haven't used it in a while.
The Kanji 日下開山 stamped on it reads, Hinoshita Kaisan - a Buddhist term for immense power.
Hinoshita Kaisan was given to Akashi Shiganosuke, a legendary Sumo wrestler of gigantic height and weight.

Whether the razor is named after the wrestler I wouldn't know. But it would make for a nice story. :)

Beautiful. I loves those. Only seen two that size sold by the same guy in the U.K. I got my Ohiri style from. Wish I had bought one. I do have one with the same stamps in 8/8 size folder.
