    Default Restore - Maher & Grosh Anchor Razor; Brazilian Lacewood

    Just finished putting this one together and I'll hone it up as soon as I finish this post. The scales are Brazilian lacewood, and the wedge is spalted hackberry. The blade is pretty heavy which is rather surprising given the grind on it. I used some Mothers to clean the blade up but I didn't do any sanding to it. The finish is two coats of a satin polyurethane and all of the rods/washers are brass.

    Enjoy, and thoughts and criticisms are always welcome!

    I had some time to finish up some projects I started, and I just finished hand sanding a blade the other day. Depending on how life goes, I might have a little time to do a few more in the upcoming weeks.

    I like the profile of the new scales, you just need to make them thinner next time.

    Looks good Jonah. The lines on the scales really compliment the blade.
