Thread: Kamisori/Feather straight

I see there are many of you in here that love the Feather Kamisori styled straight, as do I!!

However, personally, I would like to see a few changes in its design/look. The head design is nice, easy to put in a new blade as well as take out an old blade.

So my question is, you fellas that have been using this style of straight what changes would you like to see, if any. Things like a better appearance, different blade, handle position, etc

I look forward to your comments!

Thanks for your time!

I would like easy detachable spring, so it's easier to clean/dry behind. I'd like to keep the DX shape but with a slight hollow.
Maybe a traditional japanese style kamisori design with matching handle wrap.

You haven't mentioned what changes you would like.

Personally,I would be in favor of a down angle on the handle . For a barber they are great. For me I have some problems seeing around them for my sideburns.
YMMV

Thank you for your input Redgladiator, using a different idea to replace the spring is a great idea!! As far as the changes I would like to see I kinda covered them in my first post.

Geezer, thank you for your input, excellent!! Exactly what I had in mind!!

I love my Kamisori Artist Club I find it easier to use than folding IMHO

I currently use both the kami an folding styles regularly. While I prefer the folding on myself the fixed version is the one I grab if I am going to shave swmbos legs. I like it for trimming in my goatee. Only thing I would change would be the looks of the SS. I prefer this head design. Just wish it looked more like a regular straight.
