I saw a Pradier on ebay which didn't have that notch, but most of them do. (This one must have been an old one)

What an amazing set. The set of my dreams.

This set truly looks otherworldly. The proportion of the scales to the blade is unusual (as is just about everything else in this magnificent set). Does the razor sit naturally in the hand or do you have to adapt to the design?

I was going to counter that counter with a kidney and a half liver plus my spleen, but then I remembered it was removed when I was seven. And gall bladders are worthless for trading.

It feels like any ordinary razor, but the tang is a bit longer and the shorter scales are a little different feeling. Originally Posted by WW243
