This razor just ended up bringing everything together. Sadly the MOP is cracked at the pivot, but you can't win them all. Very happy with it overall.

I would lot to know what that Little M'ester was smoking when he came up with that particular design. It's so bizarre.

It's intended to be a Devangari rendition of the word WOOTZ, which is what Europeans thought Indians called steel.

That is definitely a unique looking tang on that blade & a frame back on top of that! Originally Posted by Voidmonster

Nice and unusual. And heck, as far as cracks go, that one looks like a fancy one itself :<0)
Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.
