I've wanted one for a while and found a great deal on this one. It even has a second blade still in the paper.
Congrats. I've owned a few and although I've never finished a shavewith them , I loved the idea and look of them.
Thanks Andrew! I must admit that seeing all of those beautiful wedges that you and others have been posting might have enabled me just a bit. I'm excited about this one.
Awaiting arrival, from Japan. It was more than I wanted to pay, $28.00 + $7 shipping. Hopefully a diamond in the rough. Can anyone translate Japanese characters?? .
Let me see......."Please this side up for your letter opener to work properly, please." Sorry.... there is quite a bit of wear on that old kami.
It says "made in great Asia " from what I can read. Part of it I can't read, but it looks like it is probably the name of the manufacturer. Also, it looks like Chinese writing.
Finally!!!!!!!!! I'm sooo excited!! I waiting on my 2nd birth razor.. This razor has been eluding me. It always goes for waaaay more than I want to pay. Now I will have the ss and the super adjustable .
I have the short handled one and it's a great razor. And yeah, prices on a Black Beauty can be high. My Fatboy cost me less than my Black Beauty in case, but the Black Beauty seemed hardly used. Mine seems to like Ladas, Voskhod and Rapira blades, they all work great in it.
My wife is probably going to kill me, but it was a bargain. I laid the ground work by asking her this morning how much her perfume cost.
Something I just ordered. Hopefully it has some potential. It's a 6/8th inch. $21.66 + $11.64 Shipping. Hopefully it will be worth it. I saw @Billyfergie with one that looked nice.
I Haven't Got a Gong...I Saw that One I think Up for Grabs..It Will be a Lovely Shaver..Even if the Edge has Some Age Related Decay these Solingen Steel Razors Normally Hone Up Pretty Quick.. Billy..
