Here are some pics of a razor I'm working on.

Profiled and grind lines marked

Nearly there

Here it is rough ground ready for heat treatment. I've put some plastic scales on just to check the shape feels good in hand

Post HT grinding done and ready for some scales

Please feel free to comment

I really like the modern look to the razor. What are your plans for the scales?

**bdcoffey** · 04-06-2014, 09:30 PM

Very nice, that looks great! What are the dimensions? Cutting edge length?

Thanks. Not sure about scales yet but I'm leaning towards some nice ebony I've got.

Thanks. The blade is 2.5" long and 7/8ths wide. The overall length is 7"

Very nice work!

looks great Mike,
personally I would thin the tail out a bit more vertically but that is only my thoughts
it does look very good as I can't wait to see it fully scaled & complete
I know I would be very proad of it

Looks great so far. I like the lines of it. Interested to see it in some scales.
