I could definitely supply you with straight and usable flakes. What I'd do would be to glue the flakes to a blade and then secure that in the shaver of choice. Hmmmm, that would be a shave video for sure and it would be quite the talk of the shaving community as you'd probably be the first to try something like that.

Actually I think I saw where someone tried it a few years ago but I'm not sure if there's a video or not

Edit: quick YouTube search found 3 videos of people Shaving with obsidian flakes. Still curious to try it though
 
My thoughts mirror yours exactly. I'm sure I could get it eventually but for the sub par shaves in the beginning and irritation I get, I'm just not motivated when I can get amazing shaves with de and se razors. Nice video Dave !!

Honestly that was a good job. I know it didn’t feel like it, but it was.
