Don't think you came off harsh at all. You called it as you saw it and its a legitimate concern. That's constructive criticism. If the guy is a knife maker primarily and I don't hold that against him razor makers make knives too so it can go both ways lol, but what i'm trying to say is knife forums are brutal when it comes to criticism compared to here. I think probably the maker can take it.

Personally looks good,mint sure about the geometry, but should be in the vendors corner with all the advertisement in the pictures. We do have a place for that. Tc

OK gentelmans I asked about wide of spine in those razor and equal 6,5mm. It's more tran .250". For "active" wide about 22,2mm (minus fillet of spine) gives cut edge angle close to 17deg.

Next one is:
2. GENTELMEN CLASSIC
Wide: 6/8
1/2 hollow
Sleel: ZLADINOX
Scales: Honeycomb hand made resin and corian

Another nice razor. Thanks for clearing up the spine width question for the first razor.

Thank you. My bad.

Nice, that's another great looking razor and so different than the first one. Good to hear the geometry is correct, these are fantastic. He just started making these? Looks like he's been at it for years. Keep 'em coming!
