This is a new addition but it is not a new razor. I managed to make a trade for an 8/8 Wade and Butcher FBU. The razor on the initial shave was alright. It shaved and passed HHT with ease but the edge was very rough and unenjoyable so I put it under the loupe and who ever honed it last didn’t complete the polish. I doubt this hone would have come from Fonz as he has pretty awesome quality control. I took the razor to the Nakayama only doing a refresh and completing the polish and now the razor is buttery gloriousness. I got quite the enjoyable shave from this razor. Pins are a bit loose which can make stropping a bit difficult but all in all it is a great Razor with really good geometry. I am more than positive you will highly enjoy whatever style you requested. One thing I really enjoy about Fonz is his selections of wood. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Drew Dick 5/8 Extra full hollow This razor has an insanely thin grind, it was any larger it would flex.
Simmons Hardware Hornet, refinished last night with an 8k Shapton Glass HC and my new soft jnat. The shave was great. A Simpsons Keyhole 4 lathered up some MdC Vetyver, and a splash of Myrsol Agua Balsamica finished up.
