W/B Frameback in brass lined scales
Hiya gents. Have not posted in the customs thread for some time as I usually record my projects as they unfold in workshop threads. That being said this was a particularly elaborate custom project and I wanted to share.
The razor was received as a blade only project with the worst tail decay I have ever tried to recover from. I used a bunch of flux to clean out the cavities and rebuilt most of the tail with silver solder. Re shaped the tail and cleaned up the rest of the blade but elected to leave certain deep scars as they were not in the way and it is an old blade after all.
The scales and matching brush were made from home made casting of some punky burls I had and some alumilite I dyed red. The scales I mounted on brass to give the strength needed and the brass shimmers through the red scale material pretty well, catching the light.
