    Default Two 7/8 San Mai "Odin's Edge" Customs

    These are a couple "Odin's Edge" model straights I recently finished using some San Mai (W2 clad in A203E).


    Both are around 7/8" wide with 2.75" cutting edges and about a 1/2 -3/4 hollow grind.


    Thanks for looking!


    This one features a double stabilizer grind and black snakeskin sycamore scales. Some forge scale remained on this, which I think adds to the overall appearance.





    This one is just a single stabilizer grind and scales are streaked buffalo horn per customers request:


    Lynn, spazola, Buddel and 31 others like this.

    Beautiful razors. I really like the shape of the scales. My problem is when the scales get that small at the hinge pin I find it difficult to use. My hands really don't work that well with small objects. Kind of fumble fingeres. They are beautiful though.

    Two extremely beautiful razors I would happily offer a kind loving home to both, there's only one thing I would change lovely scales including the wedge instead of the hex pivot I would have gone for a peened head but that's just a minor point really superb.

    And I too would offer them a kind and loving home...with no reservations...

    Fantastic work...

    Very nice. I love the contrast!

    A work of art (or at least Joe)!
    May your lather be moist and slick, the sweep of your razor sure, and your edge always keen!
