Greetings from Berlin; the Muhle shop is amazing; very slick.
Photographs to follow when I get home.
All the best,
Chris
Rob's on the money - this is a great spot! It is where I picked up my bottle of Knize Ten.If you're still in Berlin (?) check out A Different Scent.
Thank you I.Nice picture P.
P. - None more lavender - I'm a beginner with the scent - I doff my cap to you. Some of the Welsh Caldey Island edt lavender is currently on its way to me. I think the Bart's is really good? Scent and performance wise? Yours - I.
Thanks for the interest - it is a different blade as is a kamisori style or more accurately, symmetrical non-folding razor (with the same bevel on both sides) so can use both hands when shaving like a western style razor. Is a thick wedge and thus heavy and a bit unwieldy compared to other razors . . . so a challenge to use. Would say Alex Jacques is very talented by the looks of most of his interesting, unique and unusual razor work - and would say he has a sense of humor by his logo below as found on his razors . . . (also has some razor sharpening videos on YouTube - and will have to study them as need this blade sharpened up for my particular beard - and put that mad pumpkin steel to work).Loving your razor, can you tell me anything about it?P.
Thankyou for your reply, most interesting. I have a couple of Iwasaki Kamisori but would like a Kamisori with a western grind one day and a razor like your's would be just perfect.Thanks for the interest - it is a different blade as is a kamisori style or more accurately, symmetrical non-folding razor (with the same bevel on both sides) so can use both hands when shaving like a western style razor.

That's a pity, I'd love one.Cheers! Yeah, nice weight to it. I've got a stainless one as well and a shorter one which goes nicely with the 1914 and Damaskeene styles. The chap who made them used to post here ... some time ago, now.
