Max Sprecher "san mai" razor with honing kit

This razor, with its very fine Japanese steel edge, French point and long tail is a favorite.

It fits into a small cigar box with some small diamond pasted cordovan leather strops for use when traveling.

Gritomatic makes a box for storing these 4", 10, 15, 20 k Suehiro Gokumyo stones, mounted on aluminum for the Edge Pro. The stone surfaces are slightly cambered. The box is well thought out, made of plywood, with a magnetically closing lid.

This kit is all I need to shave for the rest of my life. All the other razors are just for my amusement!
