My first razor, 6/8" round point in white G10
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?

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.randydance062449 likes this.My service is good, fast and cheap. Select any two and discount the third.

Congratulations. You have a great flow from blade to scales and I am crazy about shoulderless razors. Nice work.
