My Zowada Damascus!
If Arnold Schwarzenegger married Farrah Fawcett and they made razors, I predict they would make Zowadas! I missed the cut on the Maestro Levi group buy, so I decided to put the money I set aside and buy an American made "custom" - and I am very glad that I took the plunge sooner than later. It is a luxury - but I will just sacrifice a few other toys (maybe not!). I met Tim Z at the Ohio get-together and I had the experience of seeing and holding many of his razors -- ones he brought as well as the many owned by SRP members who came to the get-together. Tim's razors were unlike any others at the get-together in weight, overall feel and appearance. Finally, I think that the reason to own any razor is to cut whiskers, and my new Zowada does that better than any of the other three very good razors I own.

Now I've been told of this type of optical illusion
If you stare at the second picture long enough, you'll see a bicycle, and the third picture, you'll see a white handled razor, and some shave soap...
But you've gotta look for a long time before you'll see these things...
Oh and if you stare at the first one you'll see an old politician...

hmm I think I see what you mean.
I'm looking at the 1st picture and I see some orange and then some light/dark gray pattern next to it. Same with the second picture, but they are sortof in different shapes. And the same of course is in the third picture - that one's got the best shapes though....

Nice razor. I have wanted one since the get together as well. They look good on the computer but to truly appreciate a Zowada and Maestro Levi you have to see/hold/drool on them in person. I am still hoping to have one of each some day, maybe even get one of those fancy new Chandlers as well. Congratulations on the new family member.

Fine looking razor, enjoy shaving. Since the list is full, is Farah available?

No, but we have an old, worn out shell that's seen a few too many cartons of cigs and handles of booze...
Sorry for the jacking, but I had to...
Beautiful razor though, I'm entirely jealous of it. If it shaves as good as it looks, I bet your beard just falls off your face!

One Stunning Razor!
I know it's been said before, but I wish his leather cases were of the same quality as his razors.... One day maybe?
