    Default Slice - remember about your local hommies

    Lemme know if you'd like to try an asagi finished 5/8 stainless micarta Dovo

    On care/storage: Utopian has the most inspired method I've come across. Denatured (not isopropyl) alchohol - put in a seal-able container. Add 1 Tbsp mineral oil. 'Likely will takes days of periodic agitation & there's no prob if it doesn't all disolve - it'll just look like it has a puddle on the bottom. After thorough rinse and wipe (getting all the rust-causing soap off is important), strop, dip in alch/oil solution and let air dry. The alch evaporates, leave a coating of oil so thin you don't have to wipe off to use again. Just strop again & shave.
