    as others have asid ,.. I like it a lot, the razor aas a whole and scales, where I'm also intrigued about the woodwodking/inlaying techniques,.. and am all for the tutorial, please.. I have 1 additional question though... are theyse inlays a combination of inlaying and coloring, I am asking because I don't really get it how the crossing of 2 different inlays was made if these are all wood inlays (the only one I seeis using the third type of wood kind of in between on a color scale...?)

    The foundation of the scales were made by one pieces of wenge wood. The elements of inlay were glued to each other after cuting out. And this glued layer (about 0.6mm thick) was pressed into the wenge stand. I had to trim from any trash wood the inverse of the scales to make a perfect pressure. I hope this explanation is understable for you.
    And this is the book from which I learned making inlay and get some good ideas: The Marquetry Course
