    Default New Korrat custom reveal.

    Ulrik just sent me a few photos of my newly finished custom razor, I used the razor configuration to put this design together, I'm extremely pleased with the finished razor.

    • Bellied full hollow 7/8
    • Lightning strike carbon fibre scales
    • Nickel silver pins and washers
    • Nickel silver wedge
    • Splash etched finished tang and spine

    Thanks Mark, one of the reasons I chose another Korrat is because of those 14 blanks, I really like those bellied hollow grinds and how they shave, plus the grind fit and finish is perfection.

    Korrats on my hit list too, first is an Alis Blade, I find Herr & Razors quite fascinating too. Too many great razor makers and not enough money!

    Korrat's are some of my favorites, don't own any, but I love their aesthetics. They break away from the traditional, but stop short of being too far "out there".

    Excellent choices Jamie. Very refreshing straight razor design to look at and I am sure will be a champion shaver. The grind on the steel is my favorite grind.

    Thanks Bob, you've always had very good taste.
