    I just honed one of these razors for a member. It looked really cheap, so I wasn't optimistic. And I had to correct a slight frown. But it took a fabulous edge!

    Really a great shaver. It could just be a lucky sample. And there's still the issue of how long the edge will last. Still, I was surprised at how it honed up.

    Default One for the Wiki! :)

    I've bookmarked this thread, and I'll "pm" you in the next few days. Regardless of it's shaving characteristics, this thing is just too unusual not to have a home in the SRP database wiki. The "Kitty" Razor. I love it.

    Hmm, have you tested it with a Geiger Counter. Maybe it's made from radioactive steel specifically sent to the West part of a N Korean plot.
