I really dislike excessive hone wear, uneven hone wear
I appreciate every razor I have seen on here.

A very interesting thread this. Things that I don't like: heavy, inelegant tangs and tails; plastic scales which are embossed or look like they're made from a recycled accordion; excessively large washers. Mostly it's the metal which counts, and there are very few blades which I find ugly, but there's always an exception. The TI damascus recently shown by Buddel here:

is a case in point. The shape just doesn't work for me at all, and as for those original jigged scales... ugh. I think the transformation he brought about was near miraculous, but the blade is still the weakest link.
