Thread: Elliot in Ivory

Those razors are stunning! The scales on the first two are phenomenal - absolutely stunning. Fantastic work, man!

very nice work,.. the carving is exceptional as well , keep on the good work and all the best !

Thanks again guys. And believe it or not 6 of them are Gold Dollars!

Stunning work. In my mind that is very old school, like the insanely carved ivory scales from the mid-late 1800s (they don't pop up because they're all tucked away in private collections). Any chance you can comment on your process? (what tools did you use, how did you do the carving and the polishing, etc.?)

Gorgeous works, fantastic scales, Sir!

yes I would gladly sign under the post request about how you workflow on these carvings was,... !

67 razors! save some for the rest of us! Beautiful craftsmanship BTW.

Those scales are fantastic...

OK guys. I'll put together some pics of the sequence of building these scales and post it for you. Not much but it'll give you the general idea of what the mechanics are. It's actually the same process of what I do daily with my carving. I've also stumbled upon some scrimshaw along the way which I also plan to incorporate in some future scales. Cool!

You are truly blessed with a talent, most of us will never know. Thank you for sharing.
