... came today. Dried oil or something on the blade and green paste traces on the tang. Sloppy as expected. ;)

LOL....
Man that is SHWEEET !!
Congrats ... I guess you will be shaving today whether or not you need to ;)
That name rings a bell. Is it one from the "Razors to avoid list"?
Still. It looks very nice indeed! :D
Name? What name? - I didnt mention any names to avoid lawsuits and such. ;)
More seriously, yes, I like the look of the bocote with the damascus :) Unfortunately, the DHL guy came just a couple of hours after I had shaved with my hi_bud_gl-honed super sharp blade, so it will have to wait until tomorrow :cry:
That's nonsense man! With a razor like that there's always more to shave! If that arrived on my doorstep in the same circumstances I'd have done my legs with it! I'd just be too excited not to shave something. Congratulations on your aquisition. It really is beautiful.
Damn, that's a beauty!

Nice one!
Excuse me while I clean up my drool. It's embarrassing my co-workers!
I love the uneven jimps, shows they were cut by a human rather than a machine.
Very nice. A bit glam for me, but what a piece of work.
Pray tell, How many beer tokens did it cost?

I guess it being "glam" is kind of the point of buying one of these. :) To remove facial hair, a $50 shave ready cleaned ebay razor from the classifieds here would have sufficed. In fact, I bought it to show it off here! :D Just kidding, I wanted a nice looking one in addition to the efficient ones I already have.
Less than my Lamborghini! :eek: :roflmao
Nothing to see here...
? Jimps = serations or grips on the tang of a straight razor.:w
Move along...
The Mastro is the maestro for sure. He does such beautiful work. I love mine and it shaves twice as good as it looks. I get a charge out of watching the videos of him at the forge and thinking that once my razor was just a hunk of red hot steel in his tongs. Beautiful razor you have there. One to hand down to the grandchildren. :tu
Nice razor man! Let us know how it shaves!
That is just a BEAUTIFUL work of Art! Looks just as soft as the velvet on a Bucks Rack! I bet it shaves like a dream too! If it shaves half as good as it looks, YOU ARE A LUCKY MAN! WTG!!!:nj
Shaved with this blade this morning. It felt very smooth on the skin. I mean very very smooth. Really nice! The razor gives very good feedback - you can almost feel the hairs popping in your finger that's pushing the blade down. Using the razor was so effortless I shaved the whole neck WTG in half a minute with neck long strokes.
Oh man, that's just drop dead gorgeous!
Congrats!
