    Default Caught a tiger by the tail

    This one is 8/8's, as usual, full hollow with jimps top, bottom, fore, and aft...sporting a near mirror finish. It has a slightly rounded nose.

    This scale material is awesome. It is kirinite in a pattern called Bengal Tiger. The pictures don't show but this has a remarkable 3D holographic effect when moved around under a light. It is 3 pin with an ivory micarta wedge.

    And that edge is as sharp as a tiger's claw.

    As always, thanks for looking

    Excellent work as always Bob. Love the Bengall Tiger scales. I am sure the new owner will be happy shaver.

    That handle sure makes the razor stand out! Very nicely done, I especially like the jimping at the end of the blade and on the tail. ��

    Love the scales, and the blade resting between them!
