Iwasaki Kamisori is a traditional Japanese straight razor.
Shirogami-steel, or ”White paper steel”, describes the particular quality of pure carbon steel used to make this straight razor. This steel is used in tools that require exceptional sharpness, which makes it an excellent choice for straight razors.
Shigeyoshi Iwasaki is a licensed and highly respected Japanese swordsmith who learnt the noble art from his father, Koseke Iwasaki, another master swordsmith and also a respected authority on traditional Japanese metallurgy.
