That looks fantastic. It's a pitty I can't afford it.

Woooow...and if the other Japanese made razors I've used are any indication, it bet it's a great shaver.

Man.

how do you do a mirror shine without losing the patina? it that another way of saying we left the pitting?

Yes, great blade!
I wonder what the scales are made of.

Very very tempting.........a custom razor from before the days of custom razors. Looks like a great shaver to me too, although a booger to hone. The scales look like Bakelite to me.

Could this be the before picture? Telly said that the one in this thread was sold already, I bet he found another one and did not tell me ;-)
