Back to the razors

  • K720 (~O2) tool steel hardened to HRC 60
  • 9/8" (29mm) wide blade
  • Quarter hollow grind
  • Mirror polish blade including the hollow grind
  • 67mm cutting edge
  • Stamped maker's mark (HG)
  • Buffalo horn scales with brass wedge
  • Phosphor-Bronze pivot bearing washers
  • Brass wedge/spacer pin with stainless steel washers
  • Adjustable stainless steel pivot pins
  • Shave-ready (Honed with one layer of tape.)

Shaping, heat treatment, and even final sharpening/polishing are all done by hand, one by one. As a finishing step I use Japanese natural stones and Kanayama Cordovan Strop. The razor gets a test shave before it leaves the shop.

Comes with handmade Paulownia wooden box from Japan.

The price includes international shipping costs.
