Very nice. I like the grind and the scales give it that Hoshi Tombo look.

Very nice! I love how the layered steel looks almost like a metallic wood grain! Very unique, expertly done! An exceptional razor - but how does it shave?

That's another fantastic Suminigashi steel blade and great looking scales. I really like the shape and length of the tail too. The brass wedge gives it just enough color to make it really pop.
Beautif job!
