Hello,

I would like to offer for sale a Dovo's Best 5/8 roundpoint, with white scales and a.......


Wait a second........



5/8 roundpoint?




White scales?



NO FREAKING WAY!


Here at Seraphim's Caveat Emptorium, we are not trying to bore you to tears with yet another drab, ho-hum razor that is just as likely to lull you to sleep as it is to shave your face. No sir! We're here to give you a kick in the pants and let you know IT'S TIME TO SHAVE!

B&B designated me as a "Hobbyist" since they didn't have a badge that says "Charlatan" nor "Snake oil Salesman".

First up is a unique bamboo themed straight. The blade is tapered from 13/16 at the tip to 11/16 at the heel. The spine is worked in an organic bamboo-ish fashion, and the scales are made of gen-u-ine bamboo coated in CA, the tip is a Shanghai crescent and this baby is ready to shave.

SOLD Ships, shave ready to CONUS for $85




Not your style?

OK, how about something that is almost normal?

This is a beauty 7/8 Solignen blade that had a crack in the heel. So, it got dremelled. And while I was at it a thumbnotch somehow got on there too. Nice subtle smile to the blade.

No?

Still too crazy for you?

OK, OK, while we're not above berating and belittling our customers here at the Emptorium, we do try and please....

How about a 11/16 ERN? Nice and simple, with raised, embossed crown and sword scales? How's that suit ya?
The grind is a little off on the backside, with wide bevels at the tip and tail. The bevel on the frontside is nice and even.

Well folks, the razors are sold, and I see some locals with a bag of feathers and a pot of tar headed this way, so I shall bid you adieu.....
