Thread: What's your "Holy Grail" razor?

The Henckels with scales by John Cole was the one razor that I really had to have. So... I got it.

Whenever Charlie starts selling razors, some of his stuff will probably be pretty high on my list.

I have filled most of my lists but still hunting the elusive C-MON Cadillac Razor in Vintage NOS or near condition.... I will find it...
I was after a larger Boker, but that came in the mail yesterday as a zero hone wear Red Injun #102 at a shapely 6/8+ the best part was the $30 price tag as the scales are trashed and there is a tiny bit of rust on the blade...

Luckily I know somebody that can make scales, and might be able to polish it out for me.

I still enjoy the surprise razor that I get a steal on, like the nearly NOS Boker that I snagged up at $18 shipped, a little odd ball made in the USA, can't wait to get in in the the rotation with the #102...I am very curious about the feel of the steel

I don't know what she is, but I'll know her when I see her...

There is one that I really really want, too. Unfortunately, so does everyone else.

I haven't been in this long enough to have that one, I want them all. That been said I would love one of the str8s any of the guys here make. Whether a long time custom builder or just a few blades in. Unfortunately that's not in the cards yet (unless someone wanted to trade for a custom fly rod.)
Each time I look in the classifieds I have to ask my wife. She's getting a little tired of that.
