If this goes on much longer we probably will have to change to 1/4's as they nickle and dime their way up the widths.

    Is there any word from the Maestro yet? How's he at making 4/halves blades? Tsunamis may become insignificant in comparison. We may not be able to find enough moose antlers for scales - oh my!

    I think 12/8ths would be a bit much... but my favorite razor is a 8/8...
    since you're throwing it out there...
    C'mon guys you don't want a girlie little 6/8ths... get a man's razor!


    I'm waiting to see if I can find a maker to create an affordable real working 2/1 scale giant shave ready razor... 16/8ths 6 inch long edge, and over 12 inches closed...
    who'd like to shave with that monster???

    I have 2 I shave with and they are great. I would go for an 8/8 in a heart beat.

    You could get bill to make you up a nice bowie knife and shave with that instead.

    It's not the same, I've got a 8/8 coming is a few months from Robert Williams, it would be nice to have a livi too...
    and contrary to popular belief, an 8/8 is not oversized or difficult to use... the added weight makes the blade do the work for you, and it just glides through the hair.

    I've already got one of those, but you have to be really careful about the tip... you think a spike is dangerous...
