This overly happy little fellow has completed its long way from Japan and is waiting for a good hone before it can do what it came here to do. Can’t wait!
pinging @gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social who caused this experiment.
I know it is the oddest looking razor, and appears as if it will be difficult to shave with. I look forward to your reaction to shaving with it!
How did the honing go for you?
Damn, that is a wild looking razor!
Very cool and what a well-preserved example! Out of curiosity, did you do something like yahoo.co.jp + a parcel forwarder or was this a more straightforward eg. ebay purchase?
Incredible

That looks hard to hone… But very cool razor! Such a belly would be great on my neck between the adam’s apple and the neck muscle.

They do take some skill to hone. They are great for the hollow areas like those next to the adam’s apple, and are surprisingly great in areas where the curve does not appear as if it would be effective.

It was super fun to hone!
Now remains to see whether I managed to get a good edge 😅
