New to me, 7/8 full hollow Wostenholm I.XL with pressed horn scales. It has a lovely patina, plan on keeping this one "as is".
edit: maybe

Was having trouble honing this one since I got it a few months ago.

With advice from Kentos, I finally managed to get an edge I liked.

Takami

^--- thats a sexy kami.....


tonights shave was one of my own creatures... this one i made for me.... and i love it...

lathered up with musgo real... slow and easy *(for once) 3 passes with a touchup.... and achieved the ever elusive BBS.... and just the tinyist of tiny weepers on the neck...

I'll add another Kami to the mix

Takami Tamahagane / Watetsu . Hit it with a coticule from the man above + balsa strop from Larry and I think I may have have to sell all my western straights now...​

We go from $150+ Kamisoris to $5 Gold Dollars. ;-} I like my Kamis, too, but every now and then, I just have to break out a GD and marvel at the simplicity and functionality.

This one I finished two days ago. Typical GD. Great shave. Used some Mama Bear's Sandalwood and Vanilla.

[life2short1971]

The effective cutting edge is about 73mm but its a little longer heel to toe.

With all the talk about Red Injun's recently I had to take mine out for a spin. Such a great shaver. No 101
