Lovely old heavy blade, 13/16. A bit of sand and polish. Some old carved bone scales with bigs n littles silver domes pinned up tight with bronze rod. Lead wedge. Supreme shaver! Like fine jewelry in the hand. It's going in my 'never sell' rotation! :D

Nice razor and awesome scales. Did you make them or repurpose them? Great choice on the washers too!
Like most things I do, It's all 'repurposed'. Hammer and screwdriver guy, that's me! ;)Quote:

Beautifully done. That is my favorite straight razor profile. Pure class.
Tom! Nice work! Love it! :bow: :tu
Clean & Classy , she is,,,:tu
Now THAT is a nice razor!
Pure awesomeness, top to bottom. I'm a sucker for that blade shape, really like the scales , they seem to jive perfectly. :)
Since classy has been used a couple of times already, I'll say that is one elegant razor. Enjoy it for decades.
Classy, elegant...... just tame ways of admitting its downright sexy!
Ya can't trust Jimmy!!
Better send it this way!!!

That is a FINE looking razor! :tu
Very well done on your restore and repurpose job
That is one sexy looking razor, thanks for sharing
I had to save your pictures in my razor porn file. I can't get over those scales. I may be in love.
Handsome razor.
What a beautiful grind on that blade, classic and elegant you done well!
om nom nom
Curious who the manufacturer is - I really like the way that shoulderless grind flows.
And the manufacturer of this razor is the title of this thread.
You my friend, pretty much took the word right out of my mouth/er fingers!:gaah:Quote:

That's what I get for thinking up a great question on page three, without checking page one a bit more carefully. Duhhhhhh. Sorry, Guys. Still like the grind.

"hammer and screwdriver guy" probably translates into mechanical engineer and artist......
Leave it to you once again to pull a killer blade & a equally killer scale setup out of your sack-o-stash. We are gonna have to turn you upside down and shake out your pockets to see what else you have squirreled away.Very sweet match up on your Henck'y Thomas. I especially enjoyed the shot where you can see the blade set in the one scale. A perfect fit. Well Done!!!!
Thanks, Tarkus! I apppreciate yours and all other's comments and complements on it! However, not much of this kindof stuff left it seems. Getting scarce! ;)

Beautiful work mate. I especially love the style of the blade. I've been searching for one like that for a while now but not having much luck. If you come across another that's not going in the "no sell rotation" shoot me a private message. Even if it's a different brand, it's the style I'm after.
Very nice blade sir!
I can see why this winds up in the never sell stock. :)
Enjoy the shaves.
You sure can do a lot with a hammer and screw driver :<0)
