That's Awesome Grant!
If it shaves as good as it looks, you got a helluva razor.

It is always a pleasure to view your work Grant. You have produced a fine work of art. Love the slant/angles of the blade with the same in the scales. Did you anneal the file first? Or work it with the given hardness? The finish of the blade and scales flawless!! Well done

Cheers mate. That grinder attachment made life SO much easier on this one. Originally Posted by Adam G.
