    Default my first kamisori

    I've been wanting to try a kamisori for a while. I managed to get this for a very nice price on the bay. Can't wait to shave with it!

    I have a few but the only one I’ve actually used is the one I got from Tom. The other two need to be hone, I suppose I should get to them some day. I like the shave, it is also my go to when I shave the engineers head at work.
    ENJOY!

    They are so simply elegant, careful as they are also quite addictive

    I recently started using them and now own two. They are nice shavers. Just learn the angles. A picture of the other side would be nice if you get to it. Thats where it shows the most wear.

    Wickedly sharp razors that can provide an extremely close shave.

    I shaved with it this morning. It's not exactly the same but also wicked sharp. I too have still not figured out how to store it. I've been just wrapping it loosely in a paper towel. I think it was jerry who made a cover for one. It's in the what are you working on thread. Was that you Jerry or am I thinking of someone else?

    I use a drawer as with all my razors. Just got to be careful. I thought about making a box to hole them. You can find lots of examples on line.
