Thread: A Keen Kutter? Truly!

I purchased this razor a few months ago and have been so busy installing a backyard that I just put off cleaning and honing some of my recent acquisitions until recently. We had some rain and high winds here in Vegas and I got my opportunity to work on some razors.

This is a Simmons Hardware Keen Kutter K 739 and it is truly a fantastic shaver. I honed it on a Norton 4k/8k followed by a Dragons Tongue natural stone and finished on a purple welsh. I took my time because of the smile and the results were incredible!

I have shaved several times and love this razor. The first time there was some user error with the correct angle and I gave myself a nice patch of razor burn on my neck. Lesson learned! Every shave since has been comfortable and BBS! I really can't say enough good things about this razor and I am thrilled to place it in rotation. It is a full hollow 5/8+ and has great ergonomics, very natural to hold and use.
