Thread: Maestro Stag Takeda

The longer tang looks very good...I like the idea.

That is one of the purddiest pieces of stag I have ever seen

Dat's jes' a peeeimp razor.

Now das rel coffee.

What a great razor!

Hi Lynn,

On the opposite side, where it says "Takeda Steel Japan". It appears that it's been etched into the metal with a hand held etcher, one of the vibrating types that are used to mark tools.
Is this the case? I couldn't really tell by looking at he picture.

Just curious, Thanks.

Correctomundo.

That is what the Maestro uses on the razor and handles.

Have fun,

Lynn

Actually I don't think the long tangs are such a great feature.
I shave with only 2 fingers on the tang, my ring finger on the shank and my pinky dangling loose.

The XL tang would make it a bit harder to handle I think.

I've never found tail length to be an issue until you get to the long De Pews-style monkey tails; and even there the problems are as much due to the short tang as the long tail.
