Next addition second Kamisori!
 
6/8 Hana Tonbo #23 FBU Near Wedge
Looked brand new and took a hone very fast. It's quickly becoming my favorite razor... for now!

Hanamasa
3 Iwasakis
Frameback
Western straight Iwasaki

I started with the kamisoris, then went western. I shave my head, so the traditionals were a little short.

Japanese razors never fail to impress...

Who bumped this thread ?? As if we needed another "enabler" thread in here. :D

PS. Japanese is one of the razors I'm "missing". I may or may have not googled some of those found in this thread today. :D
 
My apologies, dear Sir. I thought that the gang needed a little more exposure.

Ha, and you were not wrong.

Going through the thread for sure will get me educated (some really nice razors in there), and perhaps even speed up adding that Japanese razor to my collection.

I picked up this razor from eBay with a lucky lowball offer. Nothing spectacular about the blade but I liked the markings on the tang.

One side is along the lines of patent pending or registered trademark. The other is close to handmade best quality and the name kantou(kanto?) Riki


As another note I showed this razor thread and the Japanese stone thread to my local sushi joint chefs who are probably in the 70-80s. They thought these threads were amazing and keep asking for more pics any time I go in.
 
Looking for something in the SR box I found these so I thought I would share. King Pelican, 14, 38 and 32. The 32 has some of the nicest scales I have ever seen.

This razor arrived today. Needs to be honed but overall decent shape.

Scales say kanri on them but the decal has been rubbed off.
