【Item Details】

【Condition & Sharpening】
This razor has been meticulously hand-honed to bring out its best shaving performance.

• Sharpening Process: Finished using Japanese waterstones, progressing up to the renowned Shapton Kuromaku #12000 ceramic stone for a refined, sharp edge.
• Finishing: Finally stropped using a premium DOVO leather strop.
• Shave Ready: It passes the Hanging Hair Test (HHT). The blade catches and cuts hair smoothly. Please check the attached video for the actual sharpness and performance.

【Please Note】
• Subjectivity of "Shave Ready": While this razor performs well in the hair test, the definition of shave ready can vary depending on beard thickness, shaving technique, skin sensitivity, and personal preference. Please consider the video as the best reference for the current edge condition.
• Rust Protection: This is a carbon steel razor and can rust if not properly maintained. I have applied 100% pure Camellia Oil / Tsubaki Oil to the blade for protection during shipping. Please wipe off the oil carefully before first use.
• Vintage Nature: As a vintage item, it may have age-related stains, scratches, patina, or signs of previous use. Please review all photos carefully before purchase.

【Shipping】
The razor will be packed securely with great care to prevent damage during transit.
