    Default #50 Hayashi Diamond - Real Japanese Hollow Ground

    This was an auction I won on eBay about a month ago from a known Japanese vendor, knew it was a crap shoot, it was in terrible shape, but I ended up winning the auction for $35.00 to my surprise.

    Valery finished it a couple of hours ago, so thought I'd share the results - I think it turned out pretty nice!

    Nice!
    The spine looks really beefy in one of the photos (I like the grind a lot). But geometry says it can't be I guess, or does it? Good score. Oh yeah, I like the way the Japanese razors have a symmetrical end on the spine, not that other razors don't have this...
