New design in Wootz and Mammoth Ivory
This is a new design I worked on for a while. I was asked to make a razor in wootz so I made a couple of drawings based on some of the things the customer said. And just to fill the page, I added a last drawing that was much more 'out there' than the rest. To my surprise, his reaction was an immediate: 'That one!' So a lot of time and 2 prototypes later it was done. I also invested some more time in the polishing and etching.
The scales are mammoth tusk ivory and thankfully I had a bunch of blocks in stock. The edge on this one is 3.25" long almost and the tang is longer, which makes that I needed just over 6" length for the scales.
The test shave was awesome.
Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.
