Lotus - Balanced out in G10

Dutter - Paris

6/8 Lotus Razor

Really the steel was in great shape just some light polishing on the tang around the pivot hole then hand polishing with Blue Magic after that

Balance was the objective of the rescale the previous wood scales were built very light and very small making the razor all "Blade"

Scales are Natural G10 or "Jade Ghost" as it is known :) these are often quite heavy so I thinned them down to .095"
The wedge is actually "Seamist" Acrylic that is .050" at the end you are looking at..
Nickel Silver pins using dual reversing SS washers to lock it all together and Solid Brass inner bearing washers

Lovely work Glen the scales and the wedge very nice combo.:-)

That is really very stylish Glen. I love this piece... :tu

Nicely done package Glen. It's all about the overall balance between steel and scale and your mix is always perfect.

im learning to appreciate how beautiful those classic design razors look, great job!

That is a great color combination. Nice anvil by the way.
The razor in my avatar was restored by you. Nice job.

Very nice. Every time I see anything done with jade ghost it makes me want to get some.

Very nice!
