    Default Josh earl custom.

    Hi guys, i just wanted to share with all of you my favourite razor, even though it is not my daily shaver it is my most loved shaving posession and my best peformer.
    Its shorter than a regular blade making it very easy to move around the face, it is carbon steel 62-63 hardness.i could say leans more towards the wedge side of razors.
    The construction of the razor is top notch, i think josh did a great job with this razor, i know he has a bright future in the razor world.
    Thanks josh for this beautifull tool, i really enjoy it and apreciate it.

    JoshEarl does amazing work. He's doing a period (almost) restoration on a razor for me. (Actually, it's finished and the postman should bring it tomorrow.) I am so excited! I've owned a JE custom restoration before and the quality is top of the line. I'm waiting for the day I can buy one of his own blades. (I am so jealous of you!)

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    I especially like the rounded-French (oblique) point...very stylish!

    Just out of curiosity, what kind of wood are the scales made out of, and what finish is used - they're absolutely gorgeous!

    That's a sharp looking razor (no pun intended)! Cool hamon too.

    I'm gonna guess the wood is bocote.

    Sergio gave me the opportunity to shave with that one for about a week, and it was as good as any that I have ever used. Great work Josh

    I am in awe of the skill that some of the guys you have in the USA show when they make razors. That is another one that I would love to own. Truly superb work.
    Its true! The rad is incurable .Paul
