Good to hear! It just looks like it would be a smooth shaver. 1/4 hollow if I remember correctly? I think that was the other feature that appealed to me.
How is it to strop? I have a 7/8 HART steel and it feels a bit odd compared to my vintage blades on the flipLast edited by Trimmy72; 07-19-2014 at 06:41 AM.

Yup 1/4. I think Michael is waiting for sone new equipment which will mean he can offer other grinds and blade sizes. I think options are about to be expanded.

Michael has a good eye. I like the looks of that one.
Be interesting to see what he comes up with when he gets his new equipment.
VERY nice looking razor.

Very nice razor.
Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.
