I have a barber I've been going to for almost ten years now. He's a great guy, very traditional barber. If any of you have a great barber, you'll appreciate how much of a friend a good barber can become.
He uses a straight razor, and I haven't gotten a good look at it, but I believe the one he has is probably a fairly nice, but unexceptional, standard production model razor of some sort. Most of his tools are nice, but I seriously doubt his razor is hand made or hand forged.
So, I'd like to get him something a little more special. Devin's damascus razors look pretty nice, and I will be sending him a PT to get an idea of how much it might cost and how long it might take to get one of those.
In the mean time, can you guys give me some recommendations for a really nice straight razor that I might be able to get a little more quickly than a DT custom damascus? Whatever I get has to be special, and preferably be a little "flashy" (hence the damascus idea) so that my barber knows immediately that it is something special just by looking at it. This is a guy who takes his hair styling products and barber tools seriously, so I am pretty sure he would recognize and appreciate something special.
Let me know what you guys think I should get!
