Beautiful work on this razor Gregg ! Nice lines and attention to detail , and I especially like how you incorporated the "spoon tang/tail" into the design... Kudos

Excellent turned razor.
Also I like the properties of the wood on the handle, with a beautiful solid structure.

That's a beautiful razor that I'm sure the gentleman in Spain will be proud to own. The turquoise wedge is the icing on the cake.
Congratulations to you both!
