    Default And another custom

    Hello guy’s

    Just finished this one off today, I did test shave with it last night and I’m very happy with the results.

    It’s an 8/8” brass framback Kamisori made from 4mm thick 1095 high carbon steel. The brass tube I used for the back is 6mm in diameter. I’ve given it a dark horn blade guard with lead free pewter wedges double pinned front and back a leather strap and a copper toggle.

    That looks amazing!

    Another different design Drew - very original and incorporating old ideas with futuristic shapes.

    Can it be described as a kamisori though?

    Definitely outside of box, a perfect example of why I love this craft and this place, new ideas all the time. Beautiful work.

    Nice work, this looks great! How difficult was it to attach the rod on the spine?
