Thread: Kinfolks Blue Steel Special

I picked this one up rally cheap not long ago. It's a nice razor. It may not be mint but i love it!

Steve, good pick up, this is one of the great US made inexpensive blades that can be had cheap. I have many custom razors and quite a few very high end production ones to , but my Kinfolks can have a edge that is second to none! When I first got it I sent it to Glen, and I quote"your never gonna be satisfied with any other edge after I hone this". Man I have blades that are very smooth and sharp, they are great shavers , but the Kinfolks is like when I get close to the face the whiskers give up and jump off!!!! LOL. Well anyway it's the one razor that after I do a pass you think you have only taken the soap , but there is a BBS face left. As Glen said Little Valley NY made some great razors. Tc

Very good shavers I restored one a few years back.

Had one here for years, and finally sold it last year ... or was it this year? Anyway, it was a great shaver!
