Thanks for the link. The cheaper ones look nice...

I have four kamisoris...... My favorite is an older one that is a "Terra Masa?", its blade edge is the longest. Some of the others have shorter blade lengths and are not as appealing (to me).... Also, make sure it has some "concave" left on the flatter side.. I maade the mistake of buying one that is totally flat and now it shaves like a sharp chisel.... Ironically it still shave well, just not as good as the one with holllower flat siide.

Holy sheep S$$$T,that freakin blade is past 700 Bux,this is insane.

Please tell us that you bowed out on that one.

lol yeah I wouldn't be caught dead paying that amount for that razor. there was nothing that special about it at all for that amount!!

Brand new Iwasaki is about half the price.
