Vintage Kamijo Yukio & Iwasaki BOSo “G” Japanese Straight Razor Kamisori

This extremely rare BOSo “G” was made in collaboration by two legends of Japanese razor history. Mr. Kamijo Yukio and Mr. Shigeyoshi Iwasaki. In the early years of Iwaski’s razor producing career, they worked side by side in the art of making these incredible western straights.

This razor features a fat and heavy quarter hollow grind (which may induce mouth watering) with shoulder less design. The jimping on the tang and the stunnning profle of the blade are characteristic of Iwasaki. Just gorgeous. To accompany the quality of this blade, a set of stunning piano black scales were added for a classic black tie appeal.

It has been forged from high quality carbon steel that has gone through a heat treatment to achieve a very fine and durable cutting edge.

It is very likely that this blade was quenched vertically, which was the practice of Mr. Yukio, making the spine hard and resistant to hone wear. This blade takes ages to hone. Hardly and metal gets removed. It’s rock hard!

Being that this was a collaboration of some of the greatest masters of Japanese razors, it is a collectors dream. This blade will be a gem in your collection that will leave you with a smile after every shave!
