    Default New razor design - the Purist

    Here's a new design that's really easy to use and handles like a sports car. It's got a 2" blade and counterweighted handle to balance on your index finger.

    Robert, that's a beautiful razor. I really like your (redesigned?) maker's mark, too.

    With all the weird angles on my face, that short blade would really be an advantage...

    Great concept & very useful stand. Bare blades need a safe rest

    That is amazing! Was this commissioned, or your own creative plaything? I really like it...

    This was an idea I've been rattling around my brain for about six months. The idea was for simple elegance, easy handling and something of a "pure" shaving tool with form following function throughout. I'm glad you guys like it. The fellow that has the first prototype said it's a fantastic shaver and "handles like a sports car".

    Smart !!!!

    I mean of course it's good looking, and all the rest, and I am sure it shaves great, but the whole concept is just plain SMART !!!!!

    I really like this one Robert ...
