Yep skinny tangs & my stubby fingers make for challenging 3 pass shaving but for trimming & final touchups , gotta love em.

I like large straights but those tickle my desire.Attachment 68026

I have had a few: a 7/16 Boker, a 9/16 Rex Swede, 3/8 Biedermeir and Depews. I kept the Swede and use it within my rotation. The truth is I like them all, 8/8s down to 3/8s. My favourite size and grind is a 5/8 or 11/16 in full or extra hollow, but its nice to use 8/8s, wedges and smaller razors from time to time.
Those Mastro Livi's are nice. One of those would do wonders for an ATG on my neck. If you ever get tired of the one with wood scales let me know.
How about this Empire Cutlery Works, Solingen Germany razor? Blade lenght at the cutting edge is only 2" long.

Customized by Jenewein, and it is handy as all get out. Full hollow blade, smaller handle, double stabilizer, and a dream for shaving since it has less surface drag when shaving.
You might enjoy a Lewis razor.
Those are some nice razors guys!
I have a couple of the Korn Travel razors...so far I can't get them to take an edge but...we'll see. One is the translucent red and the other is translucent green that almost looks black until you hold it to the light. Still a bit undecided if I want to keep them.
Great thread, Lawson! And thanks for all these ideas, everyone! I've decided my razors are too long to shave my neck. I'm running out of Neosporin, but at least now I have an idea of what to look for. :hmmm:
