1.0 out of 5 stars love it, October 17, 2010

Personally, I love it, and use it for shaving.

This razor is huge. At least 3 times of the weight compared to normal straight razor, so it is heavy. The built quality is also pretty good. It is sharp but not shave ready kinda of sharp. I will rate this razor with a 1 star and a 5 stars at the same time, and here are the reasons:

1 stars because this razor doesn't have a hollow ground blade, and in case you don't know what the hell a hollow ground blade is, a hollow ground blade has 2 main functions: 1, hollow ground makes the blade lighter and thinner. 2, hollow ground is easier for honing. (Most straight razors are Hollow grounded)

5 stars because the metal of the blade is actually made out of 1045 carbon stainless steel which is a much better steel for making blades, much better than those cheap 440 stainless steel. I have took less than 30 minute honing it down to a shave ready edge, and it shaves very well but because it is NOT HOLLOW Ground, It is extremely difficult to hone it down to that edge. You need at least 5 years of skill and a nice expensive fine stone to do this.

It can be used to shaving only if you have 5 years honing experience and a nice expensive stone, and because most dude doesn't get that, this is a 1 star useless garbage to most people, for this razor is not good for using as a knife because there is no locking blade mechanism.

Personally, I love it, and use it for shaving.

I bought 2 of these razors to use with my sweeney todd cosplay. And as props, they are very intricate and the detail is spectacular, not exact but since when are replicas ever exact? And for the price, they were a great buy. I will say this, they are not toy's or really tools for that matter. They are sharp (in every context of the word) props. I love them. But if you are looking into buying these razors to use as razors, you can but I would say look around and see what else you can find. But as props:THESE ARE AMAZING!
