    Very nice belly there mate
    What are the scales G10? As they look blueish on my screen against the Black bowl
    If you don't mind, what wheel did you go down to for an 11/16 hollow ? 1" or 2"
    Saved,
    to shave another day.

    Beautiful grind!!
    Someday I'll find my first bellied ground razor. I've become very curious as to how they shave.
    (On my screen the scales look dark purple.)

    Thank you. The scales are purple with black liner paper micarta. I used a 1.25" wheel for the hollow.

    I keep returning to look at this razor, it's a really nice design. It looks like the tail sits flat on the table when the razor is closed. Something about that is very appealing on this razor.

    I can say from in person viewing, this grind is one of the coolest and clean ones out there. My friend Victor is really turning out nice razors. Tc

    I loved seeing this and another Bellied Hollow Victor made at the Mile High Meet

    Thanks Glen, you are the one who put the challenge to me when you showed me that vintage last year at the meet. The smile adds complication. If I remember correctly the vintage that you showed me had no smile.
