    Default Suminagashi razor in faux tortoise

    This one was made in suminagashi steel. It was modeled after a razor I did before in monosteel.. For the scales I used faux tortoise kirinite scales. I didn't really know what to expect from the material, but it looks decent enough as faux tortoise.

    The scale material looks great and the razor as well.

    That Suminigashi steel is killer!!
    I want one!
    I can see a razor made with it in my near future.
    The tortoise kirinite kinda makes it look a little "old school."
    Very Cool!!!
