    Default Kama str8 razor

    Anyone have any info on this company. I just purchased one a couple of days ago. I can't seem to find any information on this company anywhere.

    Thanks

    They have a good reputation as a shaver, I have only honed one of them so far and was very impressed with the edge... Very similar to the razor it looks like, a Puma....
    Sorry I'm at work and not at home next to my razor books to check for more info on the company itself, but if I find a reference later I'll post it for you

    I have two "Super Kamas." Both of them took quite sharp edges and give close shaves when finished on my coticule, but both feel a bit hard/pointy on the face compared to other coticule-finished Solingen razors I have.

    I've recently gotten a Nakayama from Old_School which really smoothed and further sharpened three razors for me. Perhaps I'll see what she does for the Kama brothers?

    Same impression I have of my 7/8 KAMA

    Very nice Tivoanatot. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine.
