Karve Shaving Co. A new DE Brass razor to market.

I was surprised by the Tech exposure too. I’d like to find measurements from other samples, especially pre-war triangle slots from both Canada and the USA.

Hello,
My name is Stephanos and I'm from Greece.
I do not have a large razor collection ,but only few of them .
A Timeless SS 0.95 SC ,the Tatara Masamune OC and of course the awesome Christopher Bradley razor ( SB D & OC E on the way ) .
Fantastic razor !
Smooth and efficient.

And I really like the brass material , being a machinist.
Do not get me wrong ,I do like stainless steel ,but brass has something special .
A touch of  "steam-punk " aesthetics  .
A "retro " halo surrounding it .
So, I had to machine couple of quite rare (    )  razor handles & holders to match with my Karve heads ...







What do you think ?

Amazing work, beautiful razor. Use it with pride.

You have quite a talent, Stephanos. Nice craftsmanship, and the design is spectacular.

Arrived today

Let me know how it shaves slantman. I was thinking of a C open comb.

Arrived today

Now that looks Beefy! Me likes......

Mine should be here before the end of the week. Started playing around with a brass darkening solution and it works pretty well. Used it on my Hone Type15 first and then on my E plate which I never use. Here are a couple pics.

it's going to be a rather long wait,until my open comb head from Karve arrives.
In the meantime i've started machining a special handle to match with this new Karve head.

Since Titanium and brass have a low electric potential difference between them ,
the galvanic corrosion phenomena are unlikely to happen .
At least at a bathrooms environment.

So ...













Press-fit brass ( C27200 alloy ) tip inserts into a solid Titanium (ASTM grade 2) handle body .
10 cm length ( ~ 4 " ) ,58 grams of weight and 12 mm max. diameter .
#10-32 threading remains to be done .
