Kinda pumped about this one. My first made by my own hand, all except the HT. Started with a piece of 3/16" stock, and ended up with this; 6/8" round point, with some nice jimps up top. Tried to emulate the shape of my Bismark, I'm pretty happy. Scales are white G10 with a red acrylic wedge.
I want to hone it tonight, but a it is late, and I have 5k to run tomorrow. Sorry for the iPhone pics.
Enjoy. I sure did.

Is the 3/16 stock thick enough to get the proper bevel angles on a 6/8 or do you have to tape up the spine pretty good?
thats purdy
I can see why you're proud of that - it looks great and the scales complement it as well.
@JMD61 - the ratio of blade to spine with is in the range 3.5 to 4:1 - so this razor is at the 4 end especially as the spine is right at the top of the razor.
Very nice work... reminds me of the shape of a feather which I like.
Congratulations. You have a great flow from blade to scales and I am crazy about shoulderless razors. Nice work.
Accurate work. Both the size and convenient handle.
Beauteeeful! Good design and esthetically pleasing to the eye!
Nicely done. I really like the scales.
Maciek.
That is great! :tu
Nice job! Can't wait to see more.
Cheers.
Nice work Jon, :chapeau
You will have to bring it with you to the "Meet" so we can see it up close and personal.
Ralph, I should have this one, and one or 2 two more to bring.Quote:

Late to the party but super work man.
Great line and flow to it. Like someone mentioned, sorta feather-esq and very nice at that.
:tu
Very interesting combination of colors. In my opinion, it lacks a bit of lightness to form handles.
In general, all super !!!
