6/8 Suminagashi Steel
6/8 muted square point on Suminagashi steel.
With ivory scales. I forge shaped the tang and hollows to give it some character in the pattern.
Really happy with the way it came together.
Thanks for looking.

These are simply amazing razors and Brian's brings the best out of this material.
I was lucky enough to get one of the Brian Brown B&B 2014 Limited editions when someone canceled.
I finally had to force myself in to use it every other day, and one of my other very nice razors the other day.
If you walk in and say "you have to pick two..." First choice is easy, the BB.
Second choice is going to be tougher...
If you have a dream/wish list something from Brian needs to be on it...

I have some of this material on the way as well. The one thing to keep in mind is that the outer layers are dead soft, even after heat treatment. You always need to hone with tape or there will be some significant honewear on the spine
