I admire the crafsmanship, but 45K is a lot of money for something that is essentially unusable as a razor.
Apart from the size... was there any mention of it's weight?

Sometime ago I shaved with a log splitting axe that I honed for a friend. I was surprised at how difficult it is to shave with something that is so heavy.
Trembling hands and and lack of pressure feedback make it very difficult, combined with the odd wrist angles.
