Thread: Chopper in O2/L6 Howard Clark damascus

This is the first one I made from the steel that Howard Clark made for me. It is O2 and L6 damascus. The scales are copper swirl Acrilic. I used this material because the customer is having a brush made form the same material. Othewise I try to avoid acrylic because it stinks up the workshop really bad when grinding and sawing. The bank line near the edge is not the bevel, this is where I protected the steel from the etchant with nail polish

The size of this beast is about 17/16

very nice, and a beautiful random pattern in that damascus

Keep it away from bamboo & tatami

Holy cow.....Very nice Bruno!!! He's put me on hold for the brush.

Fantastic! I think this one is my favorite, that is, until you show us the next one. This one is really special.

An interesting figure on the blade, a good job, a nice material on the handle.

Thats just superb

I love this razor. The steel is very hard. I tempered it a bit cooler than normal O2 at Howard's advice, so the steel is a little bit harder than normal. I am glad I ground it very thin. It gave me a wonderful shave.

Phoar, that's a stunner! Excellent effect all round.

Very nice, Bruno. Did you send the O2 to Mr Clark or did he already have some? With that L6 in the mix, you know that blade is going to be one tough little mother!!!!!
