    Cool Grim Reaper Fashioned razor from a DE. shaved like a boss

    Being that life currently just will not let up enough for myself to buy my first straight; I felt that it was only appropriate to show my dedication. Surprisingly I can pull off anything with complete confidence, can't wait to finally own an see what a awesome straight in my hand does someday...

    And if that gets boring, try this. It's more challenging[emoji12]

    Man, that's about as dangerous as it gets, but ingenuity at it's best!

    Maybe ingenuity at its finest, but both of those look like something on display at prison guard training. But that none the less that is some serious dedication.

    Lol I actually had thrown together a very similar design, just tossed it, knew it wouldn't give me the odd satisfaction of feeling more like a straight, well as close as possible with what I had to work with. Definitely didn't want to visualize my grandpa in the upper room joking with my almighty God about me being a sissy, wanted it to be as identical to grandpa Lloyds razor as I could with deepest, cardboard, electrical tape, lots of drive, passion and creative thinking on a budget already buried in the red. I did make a similar one though, just wasn't the style or feel I remember seeing with grandpa. Ended up free handing just holding de with my fingers, my fat fingers kept razor from laying flat and ultimately built the grim reaper. But yes both mine and your photo look like prison weapon. Never been nor plan too, but I think I'd actually make out ok bartering best razor shave possible behind bars using the Reaper. It actually shaves amazingly. I look forward to using my own str8 One day soon.

    I had to back and look at the pics again to find the cat calendar.
