    It seems that no matter how many razors
    you have - your collection is always "missing"
    something. The desire for more will only
    be cured by death.

    Livi will wait for you Ilija......hahahahahaha......you can even have the handle material, handle shape and blade shape and width you desire along with your choice of either ATS 34 or Damascus (Damasteel).

    Oh yeah Bill, Sta-Sharp blades made for Craftsman in the pearlex handles......bootiful set.....poifect for one of Vlad's boxes. He has made me a box for both a matched set of Ivory handled Mappin & Webb's and for a matched set of Wade & Butcher Aristocrats with elongated monkey tails.

    Have fun.

    I'm not 100% on the type of steel but he double-tempers them (a page out of Filly's book lol) to your specs on a scale from Zeepk to 63-64HRC.. I'd choose the latter, ofcourse

    they are just amazing, I am speechless

    Starting out I don't think I would blow it all on one razor. You should be experimenting with different sizes and materials and grinds to find your favorites. I would buy some good quality vintage stuff from some of the guys here and then when you know what you prefer buy a nice custom for the big bucks.

    I'd ask papabull what he could do for 250$

    The most beautiful razor I've ever seen...

    During the first week of January I shall be listing a few mint, custom scaled razors and they won't be $250.

    I have two very nice blades that I'll be pimping over the holidays.
