Thread: Greaves

Fortunately the owner didn't want to remove the age and patina this razor developed over its life. So a minimalist approach was taken on the blade to clean up the rusting and not go for the mirror finish.
The main focus was to duplicate in Black Horn the original scales in all their nuances and have it look as if it was a well cared for blade over its lifetime. The original wedge was used as well.
It's a surprisingly heavy blade.
Glad he didn't want G10 or Micarta as this is just a beautiful blade to hold and see in person. Call it a faux frameback,, a rattler,, whatever,, I just call it cool to hold a piece of history.
