The Straight Razor Acquisition Thread

Well, it looks like he did a great job.

.

 

Andrey has an excellent reputation, (Gipson Razor) on Etsy. He was very open throughout the negotiation and really flexible to meet my needs. People really seem to like his razors. This is my first purchase from him.

Tic Toc, Tic Toc, Tic Toc. Just waiting for a new razor to arrive.

 

Ali’s Blade homage to the Hoshi Tonbo 6500

Blackened steel set in vintage Galalith synthetic tortoise scales.

Blade seems very true to the original size, as I think Jamie had sent him specs previously.

Very happy I was able to make a deal for this one.
Happy hunting.

Gipson Razor
Model "Alvaro"
By: Andrey Shpakovskiy
Made in the Ukraine
8/8 Full Hollow
Stabilized Burly Maple

It seems to be a very well built, big razor. It came as shave ready, but it isn't quite sharp enough. So, I will be touching it up. Oh, and the dark sections are just shadows. It is very shiny all over.

 

Great pickup Scott! I was late to the offer on that one

 

It has arrived, it’s in a really good condition. Love too have it honed and tried out. Have not used my Shapton HR, but now it’s time for that with the Klas…
