    Thank you for your kind words!

    Great looking razor and very nice finish. I really like how the thumb grip extends towards the blade.
    I thought my RAD days were over... NOT!

    that is seriously nice. Excellent work!
    Mastering implies there is nothing more for you to learn of something... I prefer proficient enough to not totally screw it up.

    Hello,

    today i would like to show you the "twin" of the razor presented in this thread.

    Initially my customer wanted me to make a razor with a perforation in the blade, filled with silver. And to engrave the silver. But this turned out to be a very difficult task, not impossible to do but exceeding the pricelimit of the order a lot.
    So i rejected the first blade and made the one presented in this thread.
    I then used the first blade as practice piece for some engravings. When my customer saw the result he asked me to finish this blade for him, but without inlay.
    And this is how it turned out:

    8/8 O1 wedge grind.
    Engravings on the Spine, the tang and on the borders.
    Perforation in the blade
    Handle made of Grenadill with bullseyes and wedge made of brass.

    here are the pictures:











    kind regards,
    Ulrik
