Thread: Smiling Bellied Full Hollow

Finally got caught up with life enough to finish this one.

Beautiful and elegant design. It looks extremely functional and I bet gives a killer shave. Very well done.

Beautiful smiling razor! Just looking at her I know it will shave well. I wish we saw more customs without all the gaudy thingamabobs and dohickeys some makers feel the need to incorporate into their designs. As Albert once said,"Everything should be made as simple as possible,but not simpler." Well Done!

As pointed out above, nice clean lines blade and scales, with an elegant smile. Nicely done.

I love your work! You have a definitive and recognizable style that is very appealing. Just a cool razor and grind. I still look at the purple one you posted a few months ago too.

Thank you all for your wonderful comments. The razor does give an excellent shave. I often feel like I keep making the same razor over and over, but there is a subtle evolution and refinement to each razor. Every time I finish one, my wife say's "This is your best one yet"

I imagine there is something to be said for perfecting a particular grind or style of razor. I'm sure every time you make one is an opportunity to improve the nature of it and squeeze everything that type of grind has to give. I believe its a good path to be on.

Cheers

There's nothing quite like a nice smile.
Well done!
