Tuckmar

Attachment 199218Just got this in the mail yesterday and have already cleaned it up and honed out the nick in the blade. The dark spot was some surface rust that buffed out nicely. I honed it up using the naniwa 1K-3-5-8-12K and the finisher was the 20K Suehiro. This thing is scary sharp. If the blade was any thinner I would swear it was a double edge blade. Now about the shave. I really don't believe I've had a closer shave or a more comfortable shave. I do miss the weight of a heavier blade but I believe I could get use to the results this razor gives. I didn't take the after photo of this razor because after clean up there really wasn't that much difference in the looks.

I do like the bright yellow scales.
