Mutha of all snakes - and a few others!
Thought I would show off a few reptile themed razors - including the mastro 'anaconda' a name I feel is befitting a beast of this proportions! The tan coloured razor is a 6/8 cobalt magnetic by W&R. Case & Sons, Bradford, PA. The cream and dark green shoulderless 6/8 is a L.Herder & Sons of Germany. A few of you will recognise Buddels Kobra scale work - practically inch wide Kobra rasiermesser and the anaconda - a full inch wide ATS 34 with snakewood scales by Mastro Livi. I thought Buddels snake was big (ooh er misses) but I may need a support crew to shave with the mastros boa! It has just arrived and so I can't say how it works but can't wait to try it. It feels heavy but well balanced and the long tail I asked for seems to work well for my hand span.
cheers

I think so. Will have to have them in the hold obviously as I am flying and that scares me a wee bit - Ryanair... gulp. Lost baggage
I will take them though. The UK meet needs a good few members razors to make it more interesting. No snakes though - I haven't got that on the licence for the hall. Snakes on a plane!! It's a while since I have done that - coming back from Utrecht european snake day with some babies in a sock 
. After that film I would prob be shot for doing it now! (they were legal snakes I should add - I just didn't want them in the hold and the airplane regs didn't really allow it so...).

Awesome razors. Just out of interest, are you a fellow herpetoculturist, or do you just have a thing for ophidian themed razors?
Kind regards,
Alex
