    Ancient Tamahagane Bruno Straight razor, made from the Nakago section of an ancient Japanese Sword...

    Classic Edge Scuttle
    Morris & Forndran Badger Brush
    Scottish Shaving Soap
    Esbjerg Aftershave Oil

    Absolutely awesome shave with this half-hollow custom razor Bruno managed to finagle out of that old piece of steel,
    beautiful on the face, and shaving with a 400 year old piece of Tamahagane steel....priceless!

    You can see the old fold lines on the surface of the steel...

    That sounds like a heck of a razor, Phrank! Is this your first shave with it? Do you have some pics that show the old fold lines?

    No doubt, the oldest steel on here, I think!
