    Just finished up and I'm really pleased with the way it turned out.
    It a full hollow 6/8, barbers notch with thumb notch. Scales are faux tortoise shell with torx fasteners.
    Thanks for looking

    Very elegant as always, thank you for sharing.

    I know everyone's hands/grip is different - but for me the spacing, proportion and shape of the Tang/Tail that Brian uses gives the razor that perfect feel and balance.
    Sometimes I think we may forget that the best edge in the world is not going to help much if you don't have it under perfect and effortless control at all times.

    It's very YMMV - but when you find your perfect fit you will wonder how you survived without it.

    Aside from being a beautiful blade/design, that is about the best looking faux tortoise I have seen. Thanks for posting.
