    I'll post the pictures below. As for the wood, I generally don't buy from vendors anymore. I buy unstabilized woods and send them to K&G myself. The cost of burl woods anymore has gone through the roof, and to be honest...I can't see a viable reason for it. So I do it myself.

    The Oregon Maple (top razor) however...did come from Mark Farley at BurlSource.

    Could you share your technique on making them from one piece? I was looking for the wedge and realized there wasn't one! Very cool! I scouted ebay and it seems the blanks are all less than 6", which is what I normally look for.

    Pleasant razor liked the texture of the handle.

    I like the look. Something that concerns me is the angle of the scales at the tang. They really seem to bow out. This could be from the shape of the tang or the shape of the "wedge." Overall a very nice razor or two
