What Straight Razor Did You Use Today?

Haaa, I was going to ask the same question. Great looking razor.

The Wade & Butcher provided three passes of creamy smoothness.

Tonight's shave was with a razor I restored and honed, this morning. It was called the "Rusty Crusty Kamisori", that was covered in rust, and only cost $9.01 total. I decided to give it a western style hone. I had a 2 pass shave, that was smooth and silent, like the old cast iron wedges. This blade is heavy, stiff, precise, and sharp. I had a BBS shave, without a cut nick, or weeper. I love these old Japanese razors.

Razor- Japanese Kamisori "Suzuki". Asymmetrical grind.

Glad to see you are enjoying and that it found a good home.

 

Another evening with W&B. This may be my imagination, but it seems like all my Sheffield straights have a different face feel to them. My other razors seem to have a "crisp" feel whereas the Sheffield razors seem to have a "smoother" feel. The end results of having a bbs shave are the same for all. So.... is this the voices in my head?? Does anyone else notice the difference

I find that Sheffield Steel usually has a buttery smooth feel to it when shaving.More so when it is finished on a Belgian couticle.

I like it! Is this a custom razor?

 

Thanks. He does custom and also makes them for stock. He sells through SRD and on his own website. I'm very happy with the quality.

Tonight's shave was with a freshly refinished, and honed razor. I didn't know if it would work well, because it had some issues, when I was honing it. When it was all said and done, I had a 2 pass shave, that gave me near BBS results. Only one weeper, I didn't even feel, until the aftershave went on. Overall, a success.
