Very nice razor. I like how he brought the thumb notch in to the heel. That's a stunner.

Sergej did a magnificent job on this razor. I'm not, nor really ever have been a fan of custom razors. To me, it's like shaving with a wrench made to look like a razor...I usually hate the steel used.

This Tungsten Carbon steel feels very close to my Sheffield steel razors, absolutely superb on the face, he knows how to superbly hollow grind a razor as well, which is something that's key to a razor for me personally. RigaRazors, as far as I'm concerned, has been flying under the radar in terms of one of the nicest custom makers out there.

I asked about refreshing the razor, he said he used one layer of tape, and even included a brand new roll of the exact tape he used. The razor was shipped beautifully, and arrived in a very nice box as well. Sergej is class act and certainly knows how to make a razor.

RigaRazor 9/8+ arrives!!! :biggrin1:
