Your Preferred Straight Razor Point

**khaos** · 09-28-2009, 07:06 PM

Top is a DD Goldedge- confirmed 5/8s for comparison/proof
Bottom is my Friedr Baurmann with only 1mm hone wear at the toe (where its worst)- so this is how the razor was made!

Variety is the spice of life. Certain razors look better with certain kinds of tips.

Hmm, I'd have to say spike point.

When I'm looking at razors I tend to gravitate towards them the most. My two working razors are spike points.

That being said I wouldn't mind having a Spanish Point.

There are oblique points (preferably with a shoulderless grind,) and everything else is insignificant.

Make this into a poll:

ie.

1) Round
2) Square
3) French/oblique
4) Barbers' Notch
5) Spanish

My feelings are people are gona go 4 barbers' notch, but it would be interesting to see

Khaos

That's a handsome little razor. I've got to admit I quite like the look of it.
Any chance of a clearer picture?

Best Regards

Okay I'm gonna add a thread to "Razors" with more pics if you want to see. Name will be something like "One of my best shavers- Friedr. Baurmann & Sohne 96"
